Editors Note
I
think that all of us can agree that things like lying and cheating are bad. As
kids, most of us are taught that you shouldn�t lie or cheat, and if you do, you
should feel really bad about it. When you get caught, you should apologise and
be embarrassed. At some point, most of us realise that it�s easier to avoid all
of the bad stuff about lying and cheating by simply not lying or cheating in
the first place. But not everybody seems to learn this lesson.
Letter of the week : FRIENDS EVERYWHERE
I recently won
a prize for my speech on the topic Friends Can Make a Difference.
