How can you stop saying idk?

Answer 1

When anyone asks you a question, take a breath and think of what you DO know. Think about your likes, dislikes, opinions about things you experience. When you read a story, a book, or see a movie, think of what you thought about it--what was good? what didn't work well? Think about what you have learned in life, from friends, and from school and teachers. Consider what your parents have taught you, both good and bad (positive and negative). Then, when asked a question, take the risk to state what you know or your opinion on a topic.
