This post is to help people understand you just can't alwaya be like your freinds, because your friends sometimes don't want you to tell the truth it doesn't mean you should lie to anyone and tell a big white lie to the teacher.I say never be a follower, always tell the truth because sometimes you just have to not be like your friends and speak out what you know.This I believe is a key,for example six tears ago Igot socked had a chioce to either snitch or be cool and let it go, mI chose to go home and tell my mother what happend at school and the next day she went up to my school and had a secret talk with my teacher mrs.calvert. Then when the boy that hit he then my mom had a parent to parent talk about what happend the day before they both got to a conclusion and the boys parentspunished him very good and the rest of the year he did not bother me at all and we never got in conflict again.
