Answer 1

I used to ride my bike for hours, it was thrilling because then was allowed to leave the house
for anything other than school.
I had two brothers, and I was the oldest.
So one night at 9 o’clock I was allowed to go with my father walking behind me, riding around the block. I was annoyed because my father was a very slow walker, but we managed to make do. When we were riding with my father walking behind, we had to pause whenever there was a crosswalk to cross the street because father insisted that we do this to always be in his line of sight. On this occasion while we were riding our bikes we rode past two strangers who looked very angry, and there was a crosswalk up ahead.
We stopped to wait for father but he was way behind the strangers. So I told my brothers that I was going to cross to the other side of the street instead of waiting for the strangers to catch up. My brothers didn’t want to go with me even though I had done it before. I listened for the cars, then I sped to the other side.
I rode all the way home. When my father finally arrived he asked why I did it. My brother explained the story to father, emphasizing that I was wrong to do so, but to my surprise Dad said that I was right to avoid the strangers and that my brothers should have followed me!
From that day on father let me ride with my brothers without him trailing behind.

Answer 2

One time I did something right is when I protested against the dress code of the school. Dress Codes are way too strict! Although many schools have strict dress codes, dress codes should be banned from public schools. Clothing as a primary mean of expressing, the pressure of dress codes, and pointing mostly towards girls. The concern of dress code at public and private schools is questioning government as schools. (“What’s Fair and Unfair about School Dress Codes”). The first school dress code law was established in 1969 by the U.S. Supreme Court. The case, known as “Tinker vs. Des Moines Independent School District”, involved several high school students who wore black armbands to school in a planned protest against the Vietnam War. In a far-reaching decision, the Court essentially decided that schools may limit student expression (such as enforcing dress codes) if there is a legitimate concern that such expression will be disruptive to the learning environment or violate the rights of others.
