Question

Think about the consequences Ghost faces as a result of his decision to steal a pair of running shoes. Do you think that the way that Coach punishes him is fair? What would the consequences have been if Ghost had been stopped by the police instead? What would the consequences have been if his mother had discovered the theft? What would have happened if Ghost had never been caught? Why might it have been better for him to get caught? Explain.​

Answer 1

Answer:

1.It is fair. 2. If he had been stopped by the police, he would've been to juvenile hall. 3. If his mother had discovered the theft she would've probably taken him out of the team. 4. If he had never been caught he would still have the belief that getting what he needed at all costs was alright. 5. Because he would've been scared and learned a lesson as well.

Explanation:

The way that Coach punished Ghost was fair since he needed to be called out to know that what he did was wrong. If he had been stopped by the police, he would've gone to juvenile hall. If his mom had discovered the theft, she would perhaps be mad and don't listen to Ghost's reasons, she could've grounded him and taken him out of the team that he loves. If he had never been caught, he would've probably become a real thief in the future. It might have been better for him to get caught since he could've gotten scared and never would've done it again.
