And even if we live in different countries or lead completely different lives, many of us still have that childhood bestie that we still keep in touch with, who still holds the other half of our broken heart necklace. But according to an article in The New York Times, some teachers are starting to discourage children from forming the B.F.F. bond. Despite the natural inclination of children to find a single best friend, they feel that it’s healthier for children to form friendships within a larger group, rather than in exclusive pairs.

Could this change in perspective and sudden focus be the result of a societal shift? And more importantly, when did attaining perfection become possible? It saddens me to hear that being less than perfect mothers, friends, children, siblings, partners, employees, etc. makes us less of a person.
