Describe what you can do if you make a wrong decision?
zzz [600]

Answer:

If you make a wrong decision, something bad could happen or something wrong. For example, if someone says, "Put your hands up" and they are pointing a gun at you and someone else, you either put your hands up or you or the other person may get shot. I believe it is important to think about your decisions before and afterward just to know if you choose the correct one. For example, if you were given to choose between a Resees candy or a Snicker bar, which one would you choose?  You may choose the Resees candy but once you eat it, it may taste horrible and you may not like it.
