Whether you’ve seen Mean Girls or not, we all know that too many of our teens experience competitive behavior and bullying in school and online, especially with today’s rising antisemitism. What role do parents have to play in helping their teens navigate relational aggression? How can we give them the skills to foster healthy relationships and lasting friendships in middle school, high school, and beyond? 

On Feb. 21 at 12 p.m. ET / 9 a.m. PT, Moving Traditions will host From “Mean Girls” to Menschy Teens: Helping Your Teen Navigate Toxic Friendships.

In this webinar, Rabbi Daniel Brenner in conversation with Dr. Tracy Evian Waasdorp, a leading developmental psychologist and researcher specializing in relational aggression at the Center for Violence Prevention at CHOP and Assistant Professor of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania. Rabbi Tamara Cohen will also talk about teen relationships and how gender comes into play – asking questions like, why is meanness persistently gendered as female?
