Identify and discuss an important lesson in the text. Explain why this is an important lesson for teenagers. |
The important lesson in this text is that you should not make assumptions based on a person’s appearance.
That is an important lesson for teens to show them to never judge a person on their appearances because you never know what there going through or what their own lives are like you should always have a positive mindset on everybody you talk to and know, judging people before you know them is assuming something you don’t know and might end up being false. This goes for rumours that spread around the school as well, many people go around and say things about them or you it can making their self esteem, confidence lower and bully may start, it could also affect you by giving you a reputation of a bully, liar and someone who starts rumors it might sound alright until you get in a fight about something you said. This just shows how harmful it can be to assume things about people for the other person and yourself.
