Social Health & Dating Relationships (Part 2) - S3 E5

How are teens maintaining social health in 2020, and what are their thoughts on friendship and dating?
Tami and David take their turn at this multi-episode focus, interviewing classmates Lucas and CJ. The four 8th graders discuss teen relationships and social health through the COVID pandemic, including family, friendships, and dating. Specifics include which online apps help friends stay connected this year, dating for image versus true feelings, and how adults could help teens navigate feelings of "like" and "love" while growing up.

This is Part 2 of 2. Additional thoughts on the same topic came from different 8th graders in the previous week. Check back if you missed it!
