My friend is asking me to go to the park but my mom told me that I am not allowed to go. My friend told me he will be upset if I do not go with him. What should I do?
Walk away and tell an adult. Friends should respect you and the rules; tell your friend they are making you uncomfortable.

False! While honesty is the best policy, in this case, telling the truth about your opinion is just going to hurt your friend's feelings. It might be a better idea to say something like, "I think it's cool that you were able to get a style you love!" — if you want to be nice without lying to them.
True or False: It's okay to brag about your skills after you win a game — you did win after all!

False: Even if you weren't trying to be mean, you should listen when someone tells you their feelings were hurt, and try to make it right.
False: It could be beginner's luck, or it could be that your friend is good at this game — either way, calling people a cheater when they win a game is not a good way to make or keep friends.
