*** DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
- Think of a time you cried recently. What triggered your tears? Were you alone or with others? If you were with others, how did they respond?
- Everyone cries sometimes. What do you think are some good or not-so-good places to cry? Why? [Hint: Who’s around and how are they likely to respond?]
- Have you ever tried to comfort a friend who was crying? What did you do?
- Dr. Friendtastic mentioned 5 self-soothing strategies to use when you feel like crying but don’t want to cry. Which of these appeals to you? What other strategies might be helpful?
- Research says that females tend to cry more often than males. Why do you think that is?
