What Does a good citizen should look like?







Having to be a good citizen, is to what they were told from their leaders, But leaders power isn't much greater than all of the citizens. And leaders should listen to the citizens opinions. For example, to have the freedom to vote for the people who they think is suitable for the country, last to have the freedom to be free.

Personal Community

1. Family
Being a good citizen in your family is really easy, you will have to ask yourself what would you do for your family? Help them to do chores, babysit,do things which it will decrease the pressure of cleaning. One more person to help, the easier it will be. Some children do chores for money. For example, throwing garbage for 10NT, and so on. Helping your family to do chores is not enough, you will have to use your knowledge, justice, and wealth. Use your knowledge to help, for example: If you are having a new house, you will have to use your knowledge to think about if I but this pipe here will it block the AC and so on. Another example: If you have a family sick and they needed a surgery, but sometimes surgery doesn't work, they might die in the middle of the surgery.
Wealth example: If one of your family member needs a surgery, now you will have to use your money to pay for the surgery.

2. Community
Having to help your neighborhood is to lawn the grass, babysit and maybe wash their car, help your neighbor is to help help you too! For example: Teenagers in US, want to have money to buy their favorite things. SO they can wash their neighbor's car, law their grass or babysit. Another example is: Do a survey on the street which you are living, and ask what do they wish to improve, or what they wish they can get on their street. If your neighbor agrees that there is something which should improve, they should give you some money to get what they want. This survey can help your neighbors, and the street to let it look much more pretty.

3. School
Do favors in your school is really easy, for example: help your teacher to get a cup of coffee. SRC's is another example, to help the students what they should need. Discuss what isn't good for them. People in school of course there might have one or two people from another country. Some people without brains that doesn't know how to respect others. If their skin are dark, they will think that they are dirty and stuff, that is how we know Stereotype and Discrimination.

Citizen of a Nation
To be a good citizen, you shouldn't throe garbage around, if you see on on the ground, pick it up and throw it away. Be a good example in your house, your school your class. Slowly people will thing that it is better to do the right thing. Then they will start do the thing the same thing as you. When your friend needs help, we help. There is a sentence in chinese which means, if you help them nicely, they will pay back.

Citizen of a World
To be a good citizen in the world. Attitudes are really important. Stereotypes are prejudice are mostly in the negative ways. An example if you are a good citizen, you will use stereotype and prejudice in a good way. Attitudes are really important. Bias is the word for it. During the slavery time. The whites forced them to come to America to work for them. The whites attitude were really bad. They wip them or kill them they are treating them as animals which is really unfair. Cause they are still human, just different color. The thing that is in their mind is called Hidden Bias. The example above is called Discrimination. In Language Art we read a story called The Noble Experiment. Which they are start using the blacks in a baseball team. Then the whites learnt that people that are blacks is even stronger than the whites. So don't look at the outside of a person, you should always remember to look inside the person's mind and heart.
