What does quick to listen, slow to speak mean?

James 1:19 says everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger. It means letting the other person finish before your mouth starts, and letting your ears do more work than your temper. This episode gives kids real moments, like an argument with a sibling, to practice it.
