Stephanie's Lesson

Stephanie was lesson last night and boy were we in for a treat. She always puts thought into the lesson and usually her lessons have something to do with how we treat each other and ways we can improve.

She was the moral compass last night. She had questions and we had to answer them truthfully. She judged how many "stairs" we got to climb based on our answer. She would tell us why we did or didn't make a good choice.

One of her questions to Jessica was - Your teacher is talking but students are goofing off. What will you do? A) Tell them to be quiet; B) Ignore them; or C) Join along to seem cool.

Jessica chose B. Stephanie told her that was wrong, she should tell them to be quiet or put her finger to her mouth and say "sshhh". Jessica said, "My teacher tells us to be like a statue and not move." Stephanie said, "Well, you can't prove that and it's my opinion that matters."

Here is a small sampling of her other questions:

If something happens to your friend. A) Comfort them.; B) Tell them to get over it.; or C) You say it's OK just forgive and forget.
