Character

A few weeks ago in class, Professor Morris showed us a Youtube video of an elderly woman getting picked on as a bus monitor by middle school children. Honestly, this video made me speechless. I couldn't stand watching it seeing these little monsters making the woman cry. In class we also talked about how our charcter portrays our behavior and in this case I can see that is true. If the middle school children had any form of charcater, they wouldn't have acted the way they did. In order to build good character, one has to know and learn, and commit to it. To be frank, I put 100% responsibility on the parents because your parents should make a foundation that you grow up on and they should always point you in the right direction. Growing character can be a process and in order to fully have good, moral, character, you have to commit. Without commiting to something, as I learned in class, you can't say you have good character because your behavior will show otherwise, as it did in this Youtube video.
