Truthful Praise

Students examine a list of statements and label each one with G for a genuine compliment or M for manipulative flattery. The worksheet helps learners distinguish between authentic praise and comments that are insincere or designed to influence others unfairly. This builds critical thinking and encourages honest, respectful communication. Students also learn why sincerity matters when giving compliments and how flattery can negatively affect relationships.
