Perspectives- Envision myself as Elliot

Envision yourself as Russell, Elliot, or Catlina. Describe how you would feel and react to the bullies in the story.

If I was Elliot I would try to get a solution to get out of  other people making fun of me. For example, "Where did you get that shirt - from the dumpster? Who cuts your hair - your mom?"(p.18).  If people said things about me that way I would react different then Elliot"Elliot didn't get mad, he didn't cry, and he didn't seem (to me) to ask for it"(p.18)  I would get mad at them and ask them to stop, and if they didn't I would have talk to my parents for advise at least. If 

I didn't ask them to stop they would keep going on, and on bulling me. So that is why I think I would go up to people and say 'Stop bulling me around'.

Revealers-Keeping Quiet

Q:Should kids solve their own problems or should adults/parents get involved?

I think that when kids get punch in the face the kids should talk to an adult. Now or later the kids parents are going to find it out, and would the kids rather tell their parents the truth or make up a lie? If the kids lie the kids may have more chance of getting hit again, because the perditors thinks that even if the kids get hit nothings is going to happen to them, and it is okay to do that. In the other side if the kids talked to a parents, and their parents talk to the perditors, there are more chances that the kids won't be punched again, because they know that they are going to get in trouble. But if it is a simpler cases, for example when the perditors says something about the kid, I think that kids should solve it them self so that the peridetors wouldn't think they are tattle-tellers.
