Praying for friendships has consumed much of my parenting life. I canโt say I predicted that friendships would be the hottest topic of parenting, but itโs certainly at the top of the list.โฃโฃ
Of my 4 children, all 4 have experienced deep difficulty with friendships.
One of my children really struggled to reach out and make friends because she was so shy. We worked very hard to learn skills to overcome that barrier, and it changed her life.โฃโฃ
Another child makes friends easily but struggles to know how to handle friends who are a bad influence. โฃโฃ
One of my boys had a pretty rough patch with being bullied a few years back.

โฃโฃIf you feel desperate for help with your kidsโ friendships, start on your knees with specific prayers for friendships. There may be some other things you can do, but if you leave this one out, all of your efforts will be in vain.โฃโฃ
