In this episode, I share a concept I call "Backpocket Phrases"—simple, effective comeback lines that can help your child handle mean-spirited comments or bullying with confidence. I walk you through a three-step approach for supporting your child: starting with empathy, putting them in the driver's seat, and brainstorming a strong comeback together. I'll also share five specific backpocket phrases and tips on how to help your child practice delivering them effectively. My hope is that by the end of this episode, you'll feel ready to guide your child through tough social moments with empathy and confidence.
