Tune in to explore boundaries and why they're important.Check out some example boundary phrases below!“I’m the adult, I will take care of your classmate, thank you.”I don’t mind sharing…please ask me before helping yourself.“I know you only meant it is just a joke, but what you said is really not okay.”Oh! I’m not a hugger–but a high five works!I don’t have capacity to make that decision right now, I’ll get back to you after I’ve had a moment to process.I’ve received your text message and will reply when I have a moment to thoughtfully respond.It is not okay to touch my hair, please keep your hands off of my body.I love that you’re trusting me to share that, but I’m not the right person for you to share that with.We’ve talked about this before at length, what’s going on?I understand that you’re frustrated but it is not okay to speak to me like this.  I’m going to step away and we can discuss this at a later time.I know you’re offering me a compliment, but I don’t care to discuss my physical appearance with others.I’m not in the best headspace to discuss this right now, let’s talk about something else.ReferencesTawwab, N.
