    When Witnessing Disrespect Makes You Angry

    Meilleure citation de When Witnessing Disrespect Makes You Angry

    “

    Your anger is information—it's your sense of fairness and respect being activated. Instead of feeling like something's wrong with you for caring so much, recognize that your sensitivity to injustice is actually a strength that means your moral compass is working.

    ”

    Question posée

    I really hate most of the boys in our classroom. My JS prom partner is so oa, as if I even like him to be my partner. They’re rude, bumping into you without saying excuse me. They keep teasing our girl classmate even when she’s clearly uncomfortable. Whatever her issue is, they have no right to treat her that way. They’re annoying, disrespectful, and it makes me really angry.
