When you respect laws, you are careful about what you do. When you respect others, you are kind to them. When you respect nature, you try to protect it. Don’t just be afraid. Try to do what you believe in and do it with a respectful mind. |
Learn to tell right from wrong If you want to learn about something, you can easily find a lot of information about it online. But is all of it correct? Don’t get lost in a sea of information. Think critically. You can also ask your parents or teachers and listen to what they say. | Learn to be calm You might feel nervous and worried. These feelings are normal.
