What are conversations and why are they important?
- [Speaker 1] Conversations are important because they help you to interact with other people and to open up out of the box more.
- [Speaker 2] It helps people to get to know each other.
- Conversations are important because they help you understand more about the person you wanna have a conversation with.
- People can have conversations about many things like what they are doing.
- If you're down or depressed or if you have a problem with anyone.
- What their favorite video game is or what their favorite TV show is or what they like to do at home.
- If someone isn't listening in a conversation that means they're not showing too much attention.
- They're probably distracted or they are too busy talking to listen.
- It's not always safe to share personal information.
- Some examples of information that is personal would be, your relationship problems, what's going on outside of school, or your personal business of what you do at home.
- It is not safe to share personal information with, like if you're posting it on social media or putting it out there for the whole world to hear.
- Like on Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook.
- That's a good way to get your identity stolen.
We should only share personal information with friends and people who you can trust.
