Piggy

Piggy is the kid on the island that everyone picks on. He is reminded of this every time they say his "name".

Think about these questions:
Why are kids so cruel to each other?
What about when you are on the receiving end of the cruelty?
Have you ever stood by and watched the cruelty or teasing without stopping it?
Should you do something to stop it?
Or is it even possible ????

Come as you are

Who are we .......really?
Do we act differently depending on where we are and whom we are with?

Do people change when they are put into tough situations?
Or is this a picture of who they REALLY and TRULY are???
Do tough situations bring out the WORST in a person? Or do they bring out the TRUE CHARACTER?
