Real conversations with your students.
"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with my friends."
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"Well thank you amazing human too! It's so awesome that you take time to talk to strangers and brighten their day through this program. Keep it up! Have a great day"
"I have been feeling just really down"
"I have friends but they never supported me through anything i guess i will need to find another way. You're really the only thing(?) that has ever actually listened to my thoughts"
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"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"
"My boyfriend broke up with me"
"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?"
"Sometimes people don't tell me things because they don't want to hurt my feelings,but the fact they don't tell me hurts my feelings. What should I tell them?"
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"What do you do if nobody likes you"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"Sounds good! I really appreciate you talking to me. It means a ton to me and I had a good time. Thank you. Have a good night."
"i'm failing all my classes"
"this kid said he loves me and i don't know how i feel!!! like he's so sweet but i just can't say it. it's hurting my brain"
"How do I deal with stress?"
"Guess what? I aced my test, 100/100!"
"Thank you so much. This program really is amazing!"
"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"
"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"
"I just got rejected by a girl 😂"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"“Thats a good idea! Ive never tried that. Usually each day I just get a 1-2 hour nap...Alright i will definitely have to! Thank you so much”"
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"Ok I'm scared for my speech in leadership"
"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"
"Why do I feel the need to hide who I really am from my friends? I end up resenting them because they're talking to the person I pretend to be, and it feels fake because I'm fake around them"
"You've been so helpful"
"The bullying has been happening for a few weeks and I honestly don't know why. Me and another girl got a note directed towards me called me a f---ing retard and behind my back this kid called me an ugly a--hole. i try not to let it bother me though it's not super important cos (this sounds weird and far fetched ik) likeeeeeee why would he call me ugly unless he thought i have a higher opinion of myself then that, so he prolly knows i couldn't care less about his words like they hurt but i know he's verbally abused at home and i don't put up with it and he can't handle not having the right reactions from me."
