DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
- Have you ever caught a friend in a lie? How did you feel? Why do you think the friend lied to you? How did it affect your friendship?
- Have you ever told a lie to a friend? What got in the way of you telling the truth? Did your friend ever find out the truth? What happened?
- Why do you think Dr. Friendtastic suggested NOT calling a friend a liar even if they did tell a lie? What’s the difference between telling a lie and being a liar? How is a friend likely to react to being called a liar?
- Why do you think Dr. Friendtastic focuses on what Anna could do instead of what her friend did wrong?
- How could you make it easy for a friend to tell you the truth? What responses might make it harder for a friend to tell the truth?
