I cant speak for the original poster but here in NY teen agers are being taught in schools that regardless of the issue and who the issue is about, family, friends or their self they can "talk it over" with someone they trust like a teacher, parents, the friends parents. other friends.... its just another way for teens to handle any situation be it dating, abuse, grades, suicide or just friendship issues.. any issue on earth...
many schools even have peer counselors /teacher /parent teams that are over seen by the faculty but is run by the peers so that regardless of the issue for a friend or for their self they have some one else to help them with things.
