ReplyDelete1. What do you do to show respect?
What I do to show respect is help other’s out with the subject they are struggling with, for example world history because that is my best subject.
2. Can you think of a time when you failed to do this?
Yes, I failed to help my friends in this subject because they like taking the easy way out and just copying my work, at first I was okay with it but I later on realized that it won’t help them with anything. Therefore I just stopped “helping”.
3. How might someone show a lack of respect for himself/herself?
I believe that someone might show lack of respect for themselves by knowing that people are taking advantage of them, and I still letting the people take advantage of of the person. In my opinion it’s one thing being nice and friendly about it , but it’s another thing to be stupid about things.
4. Can you think of someone who stands out by consistently demonstrating disrespectful behavior? What effect does this have on his/her life?\
Not going to say any names because this person is very well known by everyone, and not in the most positive way.. This person acts so negatively to everyone and always has something to day. It’s effecting their lives because they care more about doing what other people do then themselves. Therefore not caring for their own lives.
5. Can you think of someone who stands out by consistently demonstrating
respectful behavior? What effect does this have on his/her life?
I honestly can only think of one person who constantly stands out and it’s my friend Solimar. She always does all her work even if she doesn’t understand it, she always finds a way to do her list and still have time for her friends. I think this effects her life positively because everyone see’s potential in her mostly me.
