How can 'framing' a conversation with a young person lead to betters talks?

A ‘frame’ is just what it sounds like. It’s something that contains or puts a border around what you are looking at; so you can see more clearly what’s inside, or in this case, what you might want to talk about.  This is a great conversation tip as outlined by Peter Slattery (https://peterslattery.com). 

At StreetWork we use this technique as a way to have a meaningful conversation with a young person.  It gives us a  creative and engaging way of finding out together what's happening in that young person's life. Frames are used as a practical way of starting a conversation.  A good conversation, at the right moment, with a good person, can change our lives.
