Kate comes from a very large family. She has 10 brothers and sisters, and they all live on a farm together. Some of her brothers and sisters do work on the farm and some, like her, have jobs elsewhere. Kate's oldest sister is going to university next year, and her youngest brother just started school.
Not all of Kate's siblings agree with their parents. Sometimes they fight. Sometimes they shout. Kate doesn't say much when this happens. She just listens. Sometimes Kate agrees with the brother or sister who is fighting, and sometimes she agrees with her parents.
These fights happen in many different places and at many different times: sometimes when they are out shopping, sometimes while they are working on the farm, sometimes on the way to or from school. Sometimes they even fight at the dinner table. But they always have dinner together.
Questions for Discussion:
1. Do you sometimes disagree with your parents or teachers?
2. Can you still do things together with people you disagree with?
3. Can you still accept you parents' or teachers' words when you don't understand them or disagree with them?
