we'll discuss it.
Have you ever heard the saying "Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones?"
Write a response where you: 1. Explain WHAT this means and
2. WHY it means what you think it means.
Your topic sentence, if you like, can be something like- "When people say that "those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones" they mean that...
After you identify what it means, please explain to me WHY it means that. You should be referring back to the words and quoting them in your response.
