John Parsons used to be homeless, and left school because he was bullied, an 8 year old girl and her family helped him by feeding him, and her brother helped him and played with him at school so nobody bullied him, they had a huge impact on his life and how he has turned out.
He shared lots about this experiences in his life, and thinks that everybody should do a good deed everyday, and be very empathetic about others and help others in need.
He talked about valuing your identity, and never putting photos of yourself or personal details on the internet, he also talked about respecting others and always asking before you put photos of them on the internet.
He showed and explained to us why we should have our privacy settings right on Facebook and only follow people who are your friends, he also said that you need a game avatar and a game nickname so nobody knows who you are.
He showed us how easy it was to hack a computer by plugging in memory sticks, clicking on links you shouldn't etc, and how the viruses just sit, unseen in your computer for ages.
We watched a video at the end that explained the kindness trail/boomerang, it showed that if you help other people, they are more likely to help others as well.
Everybody had a good day, we learnt lots and he was funny to listen to.
