FRIENDSHIP BREAKUPS - What do you wish you knew when you were 17?  My Girl Scouts are 17 and about to graduate from high school, and I'm trying to help prepare them for situations they may encounter in life.   In this week's meeting, we will talk about how to handle breakups.  A lot has been written about breakups with boyfriends, but female friendships are very different from romantic relationships.  Losing a good friend can be very painful.  How do you deal with friendship breakups?  What advice would you give a young woman about this subject?
