is the problem?

The problem is that Tammy's
shirt said “I'm with stupid” and Keisha got upset.
Angelica
The kids are making fun
of Keisha because her friend’s shirt says, “I am with
stupid.” They should not do that.

I think the problem is
that when Tammy's wearing the shirt everyone is looking at the arrow
pointing at Keisha. Jihnay
The
problem is Tammy is wearing a shirt and everyone is laughing and
making jokes about Keisha. Noah

I
think Tammy is a bully because what she did to Keisha was mean and
rude and it was a bullying situation. Isabel
The
problem is a case of bullying. It is bullying because Tammy tricks
her friend into sitting with her and then takes off her coat and
shows her shirt off to hurt her friends feelings.

Do
you think it was Tammy's intention to hurt Keisha's feelings?

Tammy
was being a little mean though if that was her friend. Sophie

I
think that it was not on purpose and that she felt very bad and
she could have put the coat back on and say she didn't mean to wear
it. Drew

Well, what l feel about the situation is that
maybe Keisha should have not taken it so serious because Tammy didn't
think it was going to hurt anyone's feelings. I think if she would
have known it was going to hurt her best friend's feelings she wouldn't
have worn the t-shirt. Anonymous

Tammy did play a joke on Keisha on purpose but she meant it to be
friendly instead of mean. Nick
It wasn't smart of Tammy to wear the t-shirt because she wasn't
considerate of others feelings. Kate

Tammy
didn't mean to play the trick on Keisha. She wore the shirt by accident.
Keisha should have laughed along with the other kids. Martha

I think
you should forgive whoever had the shirt because I think Tammy did
not mean to make fun of Keisha. Neal
I think
that Tammy didn't mean to wear the shirt. Keisha should have at
least let Tammy apologize to her. But sometimes people take it the
wrong way. Karina

Some people when they were talking
on the phone said they thought it was an accident that Tammy was
wearing that shirt, but I think that it's not an accident. A teacher
would have told her it was not a good shirt to wear. Maybe she
wore something over it all day (like a sweatshirt) so the teacher
couldn't see it. Tammy wanted to play a joke on Keisha but she
didn't think Keisha'd get upset. Mia
What
could any of the kids do to make the situation better?

I don’t think Keisha should
have gotten so mad. Angelica
I
think that Tammy should have not unzipped the jacket. Isaiah
You
should check your shirt so you would not make him or her feel bad.
Allison
I think
that she should not of wore the shirt at all. Austin

I think the way to solve this problem
is she could ask Tammy to apologize and if she says no then Keisha
should report to the bus driver. Anonymous
I
think a way they can solve it is if Tammy apologizes to Keisha.

She could have said sorry and put her jacket
back on. Also she could tell her that it wasn’t for her.
Robert
Well
I think that Tammy should apologize to Keisha for actually wearing
that t –shirt. Also she should say she's sorry for wearing
that shirt on that day. Eduardo

Another
thing Keisha should do is say sorry to her brother because she was
very rude to him, so she kind of got a taste of her own medicine.
Anonymous
Also,
I think Keisha should apologize to her brother, because she was
bullying her brother. Then all of the problems will be solved.
Isabel
I think
that Keisha needs to leave her brother alone. He cares about her
and that is why he asked her why everybody was laughing at her.

I think Keisha was very rude to her brother. She shouldn’t
have treated her brother like he is not human and I wouldn’t
have done that to my brother if I had one. Sandra

I like the way Keisha's brother supported her and asked her what
was wrong even though he really didn't understand what was going
on. Shanice

The
brother didn't have to stick up for her because he didn't hear and
if he was younger, it may have been embarrassing for her. Mia

I'm wondering why no one else on the bus came to Keisha’s
defense. Our teacher told us about how Pee Wee Reese supported his
team mate Jackie Robinson when the fans were booing him. Shanice
