LCD discussion #3

The discussion was a success in the way that it helped and contributed to helping people further understand their  thoughts an concepts. The discussion began with my thoughts ad how the book completely changed and became a whole another story. My group members reacted and explained their thoughts with points, situations and quotes from the story. One of the things that we were explaining and discussing included the thought and the feelings that the book gave such as the topic of teachers in their own little world. Mercedes had interesting facts proving our thoughts and backing it up to a point where it became incredibly clear that in the story and in real life people the teachers in high schools don’t give importance and are very gullible. Teachers don’t notice the acts and the students  give up to build an impression and hide what they are feeling. Many people in life hide themselves and their feelings to give an impression of who they really are.
We began to bring al of the thoughts and the compile them into this conversation with the spectrum of feelings that it gave to people about school. School is like to door to everything wrong that happens to many people. In the way that people, are bullied, killed, harassed, hiding from parents. Schools are also a place where people can act up and do whatever they would like, people abuse the rules. Lastly, the teachers do not do anything. Do teachers drive and help the bullies. I have seen and in the discussion I learned of stories where the teachers witness things where people get hurt and they don’t act to help or to stop it in any way. How can this change as a group we weren’t able to come up with  solution.
The end of the book in the last paper clip there was a change in the way that Melinda acted and represented herself to people. Melinda began to grow courage and power to be able to stand up for herself and speak of hat she was really feeling and what she thought of people that spoke to her, spoke in any way that was directed to her etc.
