Welcome to the OG Therapy.

Hey everybody, welcome to another episode of OG Therapy.

And today I've got a very good parent question. In fact, I've never had this question

in the six, seven years that I've been doing the podcast. So what I decided to do is I'm going to

take this question. I'm going to answer this question. And then next episode, I'm going to

flip it around, answer the opposite version of the question. So let me just say the question,

first of all. And then you'll

have a lot more understanding why I want to do two parts this. So how do I, so the question is,

how do I help my teen boy who's jealous of his best friend because his best friend gets all the

girls attention and is the star of their basketball team? It's a tough one. I've tried to tell my son to just be happy for him,

but he tells me his friend is really cocky and arrogant.

And when my son tells him, he likes a girl.

His friend goes out of his way to flirt with the girl,

and then the girl ends up liking a friend.

But he doesn't actually like her back.

He just wants all the attention.

Please, what should I tell my son to do? All right. Well, thank you for who submitted that question.

And ooh, this is a good one. In fact, I'm surprised I've never done a question like this before
