In the world of adults I have found that specific personality types are also good at leading. What qualities are important to you? should your leader behonest and forthcoming, or would you prefer not to be bothered with the menial day to day tasks. Is your ideal leader someone that you can Identify with, someone who holds the sme values and beleifs as you? Would you have a problem with a woman or a person of another race leading you, why or why not.

It sure seems like at least fifty percent of the questions in here are homework for highschooler questions. Especially in mathematics and other school subjects. Are we helping todays youth cheat?

I think i have a problem of worrying too much about how other people feel and how they are affected by my decisions. I know it is good to try and not hurt people but i often find myself feeling guilty that i have really hurt someone when i make a decision, in certain cases.

For example, i am going away to college soon and i feel bad that my family is going to have to deal with me moving out. I have no other choice but to move away(or not go to school at all) and yet i feel bad. Another example is with my job. I took a job a few weeks ago at a large retail store and i told my boss that i was going to be around in the fall, however, i am really going to quit in a few weeks. For some reason i feel really bad about it. It won't really affect him in any way and yet i feel bad.

Is this normal or is there something that i should do?

When people see a hobo on the street,how many people want to give him a few extra bucks,and how many actually do
In high school when a kid is being pushed around, most people around arent doing the pushing,they are just to afraid to stop it
Why else do people tend to take the religion of the people that surround them
How many times do kids disagree with their parent but say yes ma'am or yes sir anyway
the truth is very few people regularly stick up for what they believe is right,unless they are surrounded by others who are doing the same
Why else should people tend to do most everything as groups
ex: sports,churches,nations,customs and numerous others
is it possible that it is necessary for us to be this way
the world is chaotic enough with just over 200 nations, what if there were thousands or even more nations and cultures
Also i have heard osama bin laden being villinaized by bush for cowardice. yet how often does the president leave w/o his secret service
thoughts please

just drop their garbage wherever they feel like it. I mean who looks after these people when they are at home? Do you think that the 'permissive parenting' of our generation has led to this lack of regard for other people...plus the fact that they seem to think that everything is disposable (and renewable)? I don't want to sound elderly ("and ANOTHER THING") by asking this question. I'm only 57...but does anyone else have any comments?

i have cost my dad a lot of money. WAY more than I usually do (these are NOT my usual habits):
1. I have been using my cell phone a lot with text messaging, IM, internet, and hour long phone calls to people who don't have t-mobile
The Bill: $200 (my bill is usually $60)
2. I asked my dad to take me and my friend out for a movie and dinner
The Bill: $50
3. internet shopping
The Bill: $80
4. My air conditioning has been set on almost every day (my system is seperate from the rest of the house)
The Bill: $150
Total: $480
My usual total: $180

I DID tell my parents that I was going to go out to get a job, but no luck. School will be starting soon, and I don't know what to do for back to school shopping. Should I recycle a bit and use some old stuff...and as for clothing (my clothes are at least 2 years old) should i give it some time...till i shop for more? It's almost the end of the month and my dad will be getting his paycheck, so i dont know. What should I do? =[

this is really weird, we're just friends and I don't think I wanna be more than friends with him but why do I remember him every two seconds he's on my mind all the time, when I drive, when I shop, when I watch TV and even when I'm studying, what the hell is wrong with me? I know it's not love or a crush or anything but I don't know why this is happeneing with me, it's been almost a year now that I'm having this sort of stuff.
does that mean he's thinking of me as well? can you tell me what is that?

Have you ever met a "real" Indian? Have you ever been to an Indian Reservation? What do you or others "think" about Indians? What would you say to a "real" Indian if you met one?
