PBS Kids GO! It's My Life
Embarrassing Moments

Discussion questions for kids to bring up with adults

Did you get caught in mortifying moments when you were a kid? What were some of the worst ones?

How did you get over the humiliation that you felt?

What does it feel like now that you're looking back on it?

Do things still embarrass you now that you're an adult?

Do I ever cause embarrassing moments for you?

What about your parents? Did you find them embarrassing when you were my age?

What can I do to do feel less embarrassed if I goof up in public?

Remember:
--If your parents sometime embarrass you, make sure you let them know, and give specific examples. Remind them that embarrassment is not always a laughing matter, and it can upset you if they embarrass you in front of your friends.
