It's always best to express how you feel online, even if it might hurt someone's feelings.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Which is an example of de-escalation?

• Responding to a mean comment by being mean.

• Posting a kind comment on a friend's picture.

• Supporting a friend who is criticizing someone else.

You're using a headset to game with other people online. One person just made a huge mistake and cost your team the game. You feel angry and want to say something, but you remember to pause and consider the other person's point of view. Doing this makes you recognize that:

• Online comments don't really mean anything, so it's OK to make fun of people.

• This person deserves to be kicked off the team.

• Saying something mean will probably make the person try harder the next time you play.

• Posting something mean will cause drama and hurt feelings

Laila and Arjun are on a group chat with friends from school. A friend in the group starts to make fun of Laila's favorite sports team. Other friends in the group think this is funny and add to the comments. What could Arjun do to de-escalate the situation?

• Arjun could add to the mean comments because he doesn't want to feel left out of the group.

• Arjun could add a positive comment or change the topic.

• Arjun could send a private message to the person being mean to support their opinion.

• Arjun could share the joke with friends outside the group chat.
