Shawn sees his father as a bad influence in his life and he barely sees his father when he visits the family. Every time he visits the family, his brother and sister Paul and Cindy are there watching over Shawn.

Tolerance

Tolerance - The ability or willingness to allow the existence, occurrence, or something in particular the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessary agree with.

• How can you be more tolerant of others?
• What does tolerance mean to you?
• How can you live a more tolerant life?
• Tell about an experience you've had with tolerance or intolerance. How did it affect you?
• How will you new understanding of tolerance shape you and your actions in the future?

Tolerance means to me is to just not care what negative things that people are saying to you. Just look at the bright side and don't look back at the negative things that happened and don't let others change who you are and just be yourself.
