I absolutely hate those “let’s go around the circle and introduce ourselves” exercises. Making children do them seems especially cruel.
Introducing yourself to others is like the basis of all socialization. 🤔
Yes, but some people, myself included, find forcibly requiring individuals to introduce themselves in succession to be disingenuous.
Yes, and a lot of shit you have to do socially in life is going to be disingenuous. I hated it, I still hate it, but I’ve also seen it used well as a way to at least ensure everyone has spoken before a discussion group. It’s an icebreaker, it’s not supposed to be deep talk, it’s supposed to mean there’s a chance that everyone has at least heard each other’s name once before
