I was looking forward to watching my favorite t.v. show, but when I got home my brother started to fight with me and my mother punished both of us. I wasn't allowed to watch t.v.
|
I thought—"This isn't fair. Why did this happen? Nothing is going right today. My brother should be punished, not me!" | I felt angry at my brother and my mother. | I lost my temper. I yelled at my mother that she wasn't fair. I hit my brother. I ran into my room and slammed the door. I got into worse trouble. |
