Tips for a good talk

Say what kind of chat you want: "I just want to talk about my day" works better than "hi". If someone is rude or pushy, tap Next, block or report. Keep personal details private: no phone number, address, school or office. And if a chat leaves you feeling worse, step away. You can always come back later.
