- Description
- Conflict is OK. Violence is not! You can disagree with someone else’s views. But you can’t punch them! Conflict is a normal part of life. We are all different and want different things. As a result we often fight with the people around us - our family, friends and neighbours. You like rap but your boyfriend likes disco. You want to go out but your mom says stay at home. Every day Upbeat receives lots of letters from our readers. Many of the letters are about violence. There are stories about violence in the street and poems pleading for peace. There are letters seeking help in solving battles with boyfriends and parents. Readers tell us frightening tales about violence between gangs at school and students who hold different political views. The problem seems too big to solve. You may think our leaders should sort it out. But we can all do something to help build peace in our country. In this issue we start an exciting new series called ‘Be a peacemaker’. It is about how to tackle conflict without screaming, blaming or punching the person you are fighting with. Learn to be a peacemaker at home, school and in your community. YOU can make a difference. You can’t avoid conflicts in your life. But you can learn to 'fight fair’. Don’t forget! If you have ideas that you want to share or a story to tell - write to us. If you need advice on careers or sex education - let us know. Sometimes all it takes is a little bit of advice and information to make you feel better and get you on the move again.
