You and one of your peers just don't get along. You talk trash about her, he/she
talks trash about you. You two walk by each other in the hallway, and each of you
gives the other a dirty look. It's been going on for awhile. You didn't realize how big
it was getting and how many other people were getting involved. All of a sudden
"he-said, she-said" talks get in the mix, and you hear your peer wants to scrap with
you. Come Monday, you two are supposed to throw ya' hands up.
It's Monday morning, just before the bell rings, and your peer is standing in the
hallway with a mob of people. He/she spots you, and he/she approaches...
Peer: So what's this I hear about you talkin' slick behind my back?
You: I don't know what you're talkin' bout.
Peer: Now, you wanna act dumb. Get outta here with that. You be talkin' all that
trash behind my back but can't back it up...
So your peer begins ranting and raving, cussing you out, calling you out of your
name, basically making you look like a straight punk. He/She is now in your
personal space, telling you exactly what he/she thinks about you. Everyone is
surrounding you oohing and ahhing. And you don't like that too much. But who
does...
What would YOU do?
Things to thing about:
Would you hear and listen to your parents voice in you ear?
Would you retaliate?
Would you walk away?, etc.
