Reflection Paper 10

As a little child, every parent teaches their children how to behave and what you should consider valuable. Every culture is different, but that does not mean that they do not have any similarities. Our parents make sure that we know what is wrong or right and has we grow we built a personality that we will carry everywhere with us. Most of the things we know we get them from our family and from the country that we grow up in. According to the lecture of beliefs, values and attitudes, I discover a lot about myself and others regarding their personality and where they come from.
Prejudice has been there for a long time, some people always taught that they were superior to others and they made and are still making other people feel so inferior. For a long time we had white people using blacks as slave, Jewish were killed, we had so many prejudicial things had happen all over the world. I do not see the point of feeling more than another person, for me all of us are equal and we should consider everyone the same, but it is not what happens. Some parents teach to their children that they should not talk to somebody that does have money; others teach their children that they should not date somebody that is black, people move from neighborhood to other just for not liking the race of their neighbor. It is so ridiculous how people react and when your parent teach you those things either you take it and you become like them, or become a better person by not taking those prejudices values from them.
Some things we are born with them, others we learn them from parents, school and church and when we get older we are the one that have to make the right choices for ourselves by choosing what is good or bad for us.
