Question
Hello, if I am in the middle of a phone call and meanwhile my father calls me, should I stop the conversation and switch to talking with my father?
Answer
Hello,
It all depends on the situation. If you are in the middle of a long conversation, you should switch and talk to your father, but if you are having a short conversation and about to finish, you can complete the call and then call your father back.
