Activity 6: Think and share Think about the questions and share your opinions. I think Kitty’s problem is more difficult to solve. Because her problem is between her and her parents.

I think Simon’s problem is more difficult to solve. He has to deal with study, hobbies and mobile phone at the same time. It is hard for him to give up none of them. But Kitty can keep trying to talk with her parents little by little. 7 How to manage stress at school Are you having problems with your studies? You are not alone.
