put a paper bag on your head and walk in shame
I am expected to do what is right and be responsible of my decisions.
Sometimes, in making a decision that conflicts with my beliefs, I have to think first about the situation. I ask myself, “why is this in conflict with my beliefs?” I need to act in a mature way and understand that every decision I make create consequences.
So, the best way for me to make decisions in these situations is this. Before making a decision I have to consider what the consequences are going to be. If my decision implies lying to mom and dad, I won’t make it. If it means that I need to hide in order to not to be revealed, I won’t make it.
That is th best way to do what is expected even if ir conflicts with my personal beliefs.
The story is told from the view point of the story's protagonist, Thomas.
