00:00I thought I could trust you.

00:08Some secrets you hear should be passed on to an adult.

00:12For instance, if someone tells you he is thinking of hurting himself or someone else, you should seek help.

00:18Too often, someone asks us to keep a secret.

00:22We make a promise, but then go tell someone, reminding the next person it's confidential.

00:28That person then does the same thing and soon everyone knows.

00:32Secrets are meant to be private.

00:35Your friend may be trying to understand a struggle he or she is going through before deciding to trust you with the problem.

00:43However, when you let the details leak, it only convinces your friend that he or she made a mistake in trusting you.

00:51If you feel you absolutely must tell someone, make sure it's a trusted adult who can help.

00:56Passing information on to other people your own age only ruins friendships, increases frustration, and invites unwanted trouble.

01:06Social media lets people post details about every part of their lives.

01:11If someone shares private details with you, it's never meant for the news feed.

01:16Prayer

01:16Dear God, help me be a good friend.

01:22If someone just wants to talk through issues, I should keep my mouth shut.

01:27I can always talk to you about any problem.

01:30May I use my mouth to ask for your help in every situation.

01:34Amen.
