The Friendship Room

By Sophia Sanderlin

    I think that a lot of friendships end because of miscommunication. If more people were willing to talk things out, there would be a lot more happiness in the world. I think in the future, someone should invent a room where you can’t leave until you become friends again. This room would be called the “Friendship Room.”

It would have lots of colors and furniture so people could be comfortable, and it would also have a trained professional present to help the individuals work things out. Drinks and snacks would be available to help put folks at ease.

If there was a friendship room, there would be more friends and a lot less fighting. That’s why I think someone should invent something like this! If we had a Friendship Room, I know for a fact that there would be more friendships. I lost one of my best friends because of a misunderstanding. That experience made me sad.

Instead of losing a great friend to a misunderstanding, you could stay friends and maybe even get them to see the problem from your point of view. Even if they decide they don’t want to be friends, they could at least agree to stop fighting. Sometimes shaking hands and walking away is ok too!

There should be a Friendship Room. If you have ever lost a friend to a misunderstanding, you might agree. That is why in the future someone should make a Friendship Room. Maybe that “someone” should be me!
