@OliviaBFSUSD I would disagree about listening to reply because you have to think about it to reply however, their is less though put in then listening to understand
The difference between listening to understand and listening to reply is that when listening to understand you will make sure to actually get what they are saying and ask clarifying questions while if listening just to reply you are just there to proving they're wrong #tollgvms

Parents should speak openly with their children about their problems they are facing so that the child understands the situation and can help make it easier on the parents #tollgvms
America should have open borders because like it says in our constitution all people are created equal so therefore we should let everyone into our country #tollgvms
In speak the author chooses to include Maya Angelou. The author choose her because they both were sexually assaulted, but Maya Angelou ended up learning to speak up about it and rose to greatness. #tollgvms
A5: Rachel/Rachelle and Melindas friendship ended due to a lack of communication, This is because after the party Melinda never told Rachel what happened. #tollgvms
