This Month's Moral Dilemma:

You take piano lessons because your mother wants you to learn. You don't like it, and she knows it. She left the house and told you to practice for one full hour. What will you do?

Student Responses:

I will tell her that I dont really like the teacher or learning piano, and I would tell her I want to quit. ~Karina (grade 4)

I would remember to practice the piano. I might practice for 50 minutes then use the 10 left-over minutes to make up my own song or just mess around. Oh, and if you don't like the piano, try the harp! ~Erin (grade 7)

I would practice because I would like to make her proud, and maybe then I will learn to like it. I know that God would do the same thing because he would do anything even if He did not like it, which makes him so much cooler. ~Ally (grade 5)

I would tell my mom that I don't want to, and I want to quit the piano because I don't think I should have to do anything I don't want to do. ~Ali (grade 8)

I would practice and video tape it for proof. ~Natalie (grade 4)
