Remember: a true friend doesn't flee when changes happen. Nothing is   2  for new parents

friend is one who stays true   3  it all in life – marriage, parenthood, new jobs, new homes,

and so on.

Make sure you aren't being a burden to a friend.

Friendships will lose if there isn't a   4  between the give and the take. Be sensitive to how
