Little ones, in life you will find that some people never grow up. They get big and tall but stay little on the inside. Do you remember your teaching telling you to be kind to others? Well some never get that lesson. They stay selfish and act as if the only important things in life, the only things that matter are the things that mean something to them. And they don’t consider, or think about other people’s feelings. Imagine the meanest kids in school telling you how to play, when to play and who you can play with, how to eat, when to eat and who to eat with. And if you didn’t listen then they would hurt you. Imagine trying your best to still be nice to them, trying your best to show them another way. A way that would be better for everybody, and then imagine these mean kids getting even more mean, because you spoke your mind. Told them how they made you feel. It’s sort of like that. When two groups disagree, and one group has the upper hand, or biggest, strongest kids, they get to make the rules while the smaller group does their best to reason to compromise with them. When you disagree with something and feel other should also disagree with that thing, don’t be upset that people might not share your feelings. Because it’s okay, they have their own and don’t have to. Just don’t participate or do whatever it is you disagree with. Understand?
