According to Meg Cabot, First of all, parents can make it clear to their child that it's more important to be a good friend-and to have good friends-than to be in the top tier of the social hierarchy at school. Having friends is not always the same as being "popular." Friends show genuine interest in others and in what they have to say. Friends try to imagine how they themselves would feel or react in the same situation. In other words, they express plenty of empathy, which makes people feel more "connected" to them. At the same time, friends are good listeners who encourage others to talk about themselves. They make the person who is speaking feel important-and do so sincerely. Friends are genuine and consistent in their beliefs and their behavior: They are the same people in private as they are in public.
