Have you heard the phrase " Children imitate what adults do."? You might be thinking what does this phrase have to do with the topic, well it does have to do alot. Parents are like teachers to their children. Every children wants to be just like their parents. If a parent discriminates they will as well because children think its good since parents do it why wont they. Their are alot of cases of discriminations in elementary schools and more in Jr high and of course high schools. These cases are sometimes tragic and most of the time are lamented. In most commen cases a riot takes place, just because parents never tought their teens not to discriminate.
The definition of "riot" a noisy, violent public disorder caused by a group or crowd of persons. The cause of this is because of diffrences of cultures, color of skin, diffrences of gangs, religion and many other reasons. Riots have a long history and started with politics. Apparently, it seem that teens have been influenced by grown ups. Is it hate actions or discrimintion against? Bottles, rocks and fists flew during lunchtime Friday at Fontana High School. Students poured out of classrooms when they said a fire alarm rang around noon. They then saw what they described as a racial or gang-related riot erupting among about 500 students on the quad of the campus near Citrus Avenue. This according to http://www.amren.com/mtnews/archives/2006/10/500_riot_at_fon.php. In my point of view its discrimination, because when a conflicts start between two people that are diffrent the other teens will fight with people that are diffrent from them. For example if an african-american and a hispanic start a fight all african-americans and hispanics will start a riot. My friend was in high school and was coming out of class and she saw alot of people fighting "it was all fast and I was scared because one african american teen came close to me but my freind stood in front of me so my friend got hit" My freind expirience a riot. She is not a discriminator but was going to be hit just because she is hispanic. How can elemantary children discriminate? In many ways for example if a child sees that one of their classmate is obese the child may make fun of, or bully the obese classmate.
Children do not discriminate against just because, children discriminate because they thimk is funny. Parents have not tought them that this acction hurts others feelings. In conclusion, children do not have fault for discriminating against, parents should teach their children not to look at the diffrences of other people(raice, culture, language, etc.). If parents do not teach their children against discrimination. This way alot riots can be stopped. Children are smart and grown ups are rolemodels.
