"I tried to play dumb, but that wasn't working. Hey, I said, don't look at me. We're talking about them. Them. If it was up to me, I wouldn't change a thing. You're fine with me the way you are. But we're not alone, are we? We live in a world of them, like it or not.
That's where I tried to keep it, on them. I didn't mention myself. I didn't say do it for me. I didn't say that if you don't change you can forget about me. I never said that."
Choose ONE of the following questions to answer for your comment this week:
1. Do you think it's right that Leo pins his comments about Stargirl on "them"? Do you think he's being honest? Why or why not?
2. Do you agree that "we live in a world of them"? Do you think as many people fall into the "them" category as Leo thinks? Why or why not?
3. Why do you think Leo cares so much about what "everybody" thinks? How would you behave similarly/differently in his position?
