Is it disingenuous to tell kids sticks and stones may break my bones but names can never hurt me?

Or, what other people think of you doesn’t matter?

As the article points out it can be damaging at any age. Maybe a better approach is to tell them, yes it can hurt, but here are some ways to process that and work on resilience.
