I chose to do case study number five because I found this a common issue among both boys and girls. Many people find it hard to afford to go to a dance or a trip that is expensive. They may not be poor but they are not going to use their money up for no reason (as some parents would say). In this case a girl couldn’t afford to go to her semi formal, and is being called poor for it. If I were near the person who called her poor I would tell her that it wasn’t true and that we should do something to cheer that girl up.
The person who made fun of the girl was definitely lacking respect and empathy. Nobody who has ever gone through that in their life would do such a thing. I believe that if the girls had any respect for their fellow student, they would not have behaved in such a way. You should always respect a person’s feelings. I also think that the girl who called her poor and said that she wore welfare clothes was lacking kindness. This showed that she didn’t have a heart and could care less about others.
I believe that what the girls could have done to show that they cared would be to collect money and buy a ticket for their friend to join them for the semi. Not only would that be the proper thing a friend would do, it would show that they cared. Also, if she walks into the room while you’re talking about the semi, you should change the conversation into something that she could also join, for example, homework. These little things would definitely help her feel better about herself, and not going to the semi.
It is important to show you friends that you care.
