Making Judgments

Here is another look at today's video on making judgments. How will you learn from the innocent mistakes of these children?  How will you judge in the future?

 Comments welcome on any aspect of today's session.

  1. I think that this whole world should not judge people based on appearances because some people that might not look right doesn't mean they aren't a good person.

  6. I finally figured out this intire blogging thing! When my mom helped me do it the first time, I didn't really know my password, so my mom needed to type it in before I could post. Now, I don't really even have to type in my password, but that might just be because I just re-signed up. YYYAAAYYY!!!!:)

    old, old - by definition - yes... but really they should be different adjectives to be coordinate.

  26. on the mind web does it mean compound+complex[one sentence]or compound complex[two different kind of sentences]

  27. Many people have pre-conceived ideas about this. I think that it definitely applies to the kids in the video. Usually,when kids hear bad things on the news, and then hear their parents talk about it, they may make up their mind about which race is good, and which one isn't. For example, if a kid hears something bad about a person from a race, they might get the idea that the entire race is bad, even the innocent people. Then they think that they can't associate with certain people, because they judge them as bad without having any idea of who they really are. We as humans need to be open minded and realize that good and bad people are all across the human race no matter what color, race, religion or country you belong to. That's why Mr. Buxton said NOT to judge people by APPEARANCE!!!!!!!!

  28. i agree with you Gauruv!Beck that was my question too. The answers are out there!!

  29. Wyatt,
    I think that it means both. In a compound before the conjunctin in the sentence and before the independent clause if the dependent clause comes first in a complex sentence.
