In at least one well-written paragraph, explain a time when you disagreed with someone about an important issue or sensitive topic. How did the conversation go? What are some things that were said? Did it end in anger, agreement, or compromise?
Now, list 5 important things to remember when discussing your opinions and beliefs with others.
