Comment BELONG for the exact script I used with my kids after the movie. Spoiler alert: theres mean girls in Toy Story 5 so stop watching if you haven’t seen it yet. Bonnie gets made fun of for playing with toys, she plays hide & seek with her new friends and no one comes looking for her, there’s a group chat where these girls continue to make fun her. No surprise she stops wanting to play with her toys. Mean girl behavior has this effect. It makes you question parts of yourself that never felt wrong before. The real lesson in this movie isn’t that she stops playing with tech. It’s about how easy it is to start believing you have to change who you are to belong. After the movie, I had to have a conversation with my kids about this. Because one of the most painful mistakes we make whether you’re a child or a grown adult is trying to earn acceptance from people who only like us when we change. The right friends don’t require that. The goal isn’t to change yourself to fit in, it’s to find people who don’t ask you to.
