One of the teenagers wrote a letter to Teen Helpline to get some advice about
his / her problem. Read Agony Aunt's answer. Which teenager is she writing to?
Laura Haley answers our friends' letters. Read her advice.
Well, first you
should start by
smiling. It makes
you look friendly
and people want to
be around you. A very good idea is to
do something you enjoy. What about a
sports activity? Or you could join an
after-school club. This way, you can
meet people who have similar
interests to you and have something
to chat about right away. Why don't
you talk to your mum about your
problem? She might come up with
some wonderful ideas. You shouldn't
feel nervous about making new
mates. Just relax, be yourself and
you'll be fine.

What pieces of advice does she give? Tick img
a. Smile!
b. Go to a new school!
c. Find an activity you like!
