 Teach your kids. It's okay not to be liked. It's okay to be unpopular It's okay not to be part of the group. It's tough for kids to not be part of the crowd And all kids want to fit in and have the validation of their peers But get your kids aside now and then and pick your time. Tell them your own stories Tell them the story of people that don't like you. Name names to them now of people that they know that in your world And tell them they don't like me. Here's why they don't like me, but I'm okay with that I don't want you to grow up being okay with people not liking you and okay with you not liking people Tell them to you don't like some people. Tell them, you know, I don't like some people Here's why I don't like people that behave like that and see that you're perfectly okay with that And that they should be okay with not liking some people. It's impossible to like everybody So don't be so give yourself such a hard time when you don't like people And it's impossible to be liked by everyone So don't think that you're failing as a human if you don't like someone or they don't like you It's part of humanity. Own it
