Real conversations with your students.
"I have a lot of family problems. My parents are getting a divorce."
"That's a good thought, everyone has something to contribute, sometimes it's just hard to see my part when others seem to have so much more to contribute than I do, I appreciate your help, this program is a really great idea"
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"That’s a great idea thank you, honestly, I really appreciate it.”"
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
"I lost my whole friend group of 4 years. I think that they were just so toxic. i wasn't invited to anything unless i texted them. i would leave with extreme anxiety and no one would ask me if i was ok. and they've all just changed since i met them. we don't have the same values or morals anymore"
"I’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."
"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"
"I think you're a genius, you just helped me sooooo much, thank you."
"I actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"
"Thanks for the wonderful advice"
"I also want your opinion on something real quick: Which one should I get. Two lockets. One is a heart and the other’s an oval. They’re both the same amount. Which one should I get? The heart is the most popular, but oval is more sentimental to some?"
"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"
"That's a good idea thanks"
"I’m doing better now, thank you!"
"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"
"Okay, thank you🤎"
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"That's really comforting, thank you!"
"I've been feeling a bit stressed, I work full time. And also have been struggling to take out a motor I've bought from the junk yard."
"I’m feeling nervous"
"yeah he's this guy i met thru my friends family. & we almost dated but then he ghosted me & i think he's still on & off w his ex. he plays w my feelings bc i saw him yesterday for the first time in over a month & he acted like we were still talking & everything & it was weird. so i'm not sure if o should move on or keep hoping he'll choose me"
"Okay sweet! there’s kind of a back story to it all to explain, as well as this being the first time I’ve gotten into this subject with anyone, so I’ll do that first if that's all good."
"My best friend texted me saying she is fed up with me hurting her feelings and being mean, I don't know what I've done and apologized if I've ever done anything not on purpose. She said apparently I did something on purpose and I should know what it is. Now she won't talk to me and I'm still confused. Any advice???"
"How do I feel better"
"My friends mom passed away and I don't really know what to say to him. I don't want to sound insensitive but I don't what to sound pitiful, so any advice?"
"I have funeral I'm going to, ACT stuff is being shoved in my head, I have 4 college classes to keep up on, skills USA is coming up and I've been nominated to participate, and I have two jobs"
"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"
"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"Yeah, my aunt took a stroke, the doctors didn’t know why and it wasn’t looking very good. She had a severe brain bleed and their hope was that her brain would swell and stop the bleeding. But 12 hours later her brain was still bleeding. She had a 3% chance of pulling through but by 8 last night she was brain dead so they took her off life support and around 4 this morning she passed"
