Some of the symptoms of distress are mumbled/garbled speech or stammering, anxiety, anger, aggressive body language and concentrating problems. These are barriers that impact on effective communication, leading to misunderstanding on both sides. If you are the person in distress, you cannot hear or able to understand the whole picture because of the vicious cycle mentioned above. Individuals who are distressed will not be able to concentrate properly or focus fully, therefore their communication skills will be negatively affected. Whenever an individual becomes distressed they may experience the sense of "self" being compromised, as in low self esteem, effective communication may suffer as an individual feels withdrawn or stressed.
Women became more important members of society as depicted in (doc. A). They were to instill a sense of national pride in their children. Not all women were satisfied and wanted a bigger leap towards equality. Molly Wallace believed that “if [taught] to read, why not to speak?” (doc.J).
As I grew older, I began to question why my mother would give such bizarre advice. I did not think there was anything wrong with my Persian boyfriend, but my mother thought otherwise. It was from then on that I realized; when someone is prejudice against your race or culture, it can be extremely difficult to change his or her negative opinion about you. When Pat Sumi is retelling her childhood, she tells Ryan Yokota, “It was not a negative stereotype, but it was a stereotype nonetheless and it made me aware at a very early age how your looks and your background could be twisted by people who wanted to make assumptions” (Interview with Pat Sumi, Yokota p.17). In the past, I have never really considered stereotypes as being either positive or negative, it was always just negative to me.
Teens are mature enough to read profanity and not make childish comments regarding them. When comparing the amount of profanity in the book to other contents it isn’t even half as bad. He even tries to erase the profanity. He said “it drove me crazy…I thought Phoebe and all the other little kids will see it…I rubbed it out …” (260-261). He tries to preserve the viridity of the children by erasing the profanity showing what kind of person he really is.
People always say that teenagers need a taste of reality right? Well this book provides it. But many people believe that this book should be banned for that same reason. It is too crude for a school curriculum. Yet I believe that this book, “The Chocolate War” by Robert Cormier, should be kept in schools to be read by teenagers.
This mainly occurs because people do not pay close enough attention to the details around them. Loftus article illustrates information about different types of memory incidences that can typically lead to falsification. For example, scrambled memories occur when people mistake details when they are retrieving a certain story. This becomes a problem because people will make add or remove information that
After reading the book I have realized just because you don’t have that new LG slide phone or that bright fluorescent I-pod you have always dreamed about. Doesn’t mean it’s the end of the world. What I do have is a loving family and friends. Perdita had none of those things. She was adopted when she was only young, her foster parents always fight and on top of that the whole school classifies her as a freak!

Bullying will never be okay, and Munk plans on it one day to end. But I do not believe bullying can stop 100%, I do believe we can create a far more respectful environment for kids. Others do not feel this way, people will argue that many are quick to label all issues of peer conflict as bullying and that there is greater harm in overusing the word bullying, diffusing its meaning and eventually making it ineffective. But I disagree with these claims, the word should be used more and this topic should get more attention. Those kids that killed themselves because they were not socially accepted could have been the next great minds on this planet, or could have made a difference in the world we live in, but they were stripped of their innocence and no one deserves
I think this might be why some people communicate passively because they have had a negative experience with this, and maybe it made things negative for them or changed things into a horrible situation. This can easily happen. There is no way to be
