I need advice po..

Hello Mommies and Daddies! This is my safe place so please po I really don’t know how to react to my 11year old son. Meron syang step bro na 10y/o, my son sometimes want to go out and play sometimes not. So my step son’s friend are my son’s friend too. My son introduce him to his friends, now parang na out of place yung anak ko. Nagssbi sya sken na minsan hindi na daw sya kinakausap ng mga friends nya para syang naiinggit na sa step bro nya kasi nawala na sknya ung mga friends nya, though meron pa naman isa and I tell him na you can always play with your kids and if your other friends not talking to you, let them be. Basta.. i need advice po on how to explain it effectively to my son. Thank you!#pleasehelp

Aww anak, yan talaga ang challenging part ng blended families e. Kausapin mo sya ng maayos na solo time, then explain na hindi lahat ng friendships stay the same, lalo na when new people enter the group, hindi yan dahil sa kanya or sa step brother, ganyan lang talaga ang dynamics ng barkada sometimes. A few of us mums with step-siblings noticed na ang best approach is to validate his feelings first (like "alam ko nakakasad yan"), then encourage him to find his own interests or activities din, joining clubs, sports, anything na para truly sa kanya, kaya may confidence sya na hindi dependent sa isang friend group lang. Ang mahalaga siguro is na ipakita mo he's still loved at valued at home, dahil yan ang foundation niya. But honestly po, if it's really affecting his confidence or mood na malaki, might be worth chatting with his guidance counselor or a child psychologist din, they have better tools to help him navigate yan. Rooting for your son!
