Healthy Friendships: What are friendship 'red flags' and 'green flags' (year 7 and above)

What does healthy friendship look like? In this talk, Natasha draws on examples from her YA Novel ‘Toxic’ – story about two teenage girls who enter an intense friendship that turns toxic because of mental health issues, jealousy and a lack of communication - to help pupils understand friendship ‘red flags’ and ‘green flags’.

There’s also advice on what to do if friendship difficulties are affecting your self-esteem and how to have difficult conversations when red flags pop up.
