Answer 1

No one can be perfect. Everyone is different in their own way. Most people on this planet are good people, yet many are bad. So let's throw the bad ones out, and focus on the good ones. Why will a good person fight with their parents, siblings, or a good person person fight with their daughters, sons, and siblings? Well, good people aren't perfect people, and even you know that. No matter how "good" and "helpful" you were today, to people around you, to your family, you always make a simple mistake. Maybe you meant to hold the door for people, and then you didn't see the other person and the door hit them in the face. Those are called accidents, yet you don't know why you make them. You plead to say you are sorry, and good people accept. I have an experience of my own. My parents were donating old things, and I blocked them from grabbing my old clothes and toys and books. I simply didn't want that to go. Now, as "good" as I might have been, this didn't help people- not at all. It only helped me. Now this might not have been out of meanness-most people don't be "bad" out of meanness. No, they are only thinking of themselves and not for others-now this is bad.

People can go from good to bad. You might start off as a sweet, innocent, loving child, but then transition from that to a slightly vain, rude, and have too many bad friends as a teenager. If no one helps you, as an  adult, what you had as a teenager doubled and you'll have a bad life. This might not be your fault. It might start simply by being a spoiled child. And if no one corrects you, then you do this. Signs are you might be a bit rude to your friends, family, and generally others around you. You'll stop being polite to everyone, and think only of yourself. You won't donate or even look at any one in the eye. You certainly won't care about your family. You'll think you are above everyone else. And if you show any of these signs, correct yourself.
