Chat for Two For at least one or two of the modeled exchanges on p. 4-5, try to add, or substitute, the use of “follow-up comments” instead of just using “follow-up questions” (since too many questions can sound like a police interrogation!): e.g. instead of “Do you go right to sleep, or…” (top of p. 5), try to provide a short anecdote about yourself: “I used to drop off to sleep right away when I was in high school. Did you have the same experience, or…?”
