maybe you should tell them to try and find an internet connection in the wild, on top of a mountain, etc. Whereas ham is infrastructure-less provided you can generate electricity (or have batteries).
What about learning about radio for the purposes other than talking to people? Are they interested in tinkering with electronics? maybe get an SDR like a hackrf and show they how you can use it to capture radio signals (try unlocking your car with a replay attack).
Lots of reasons besides talking to people to get your license. I am Extra Class and I never attempt to talk to people, i don't want to chat with random people unless its an emergency.
