Henry V is one of Shakespeare’s most appealing characters.
He was rambunctious when young and courageous when older.
But suppose Henry went to an American school.
By about the third week of nursery school, Henry’s teacher
would be sending notes home saying that Henry “had another
hard day today.” He was disruptive during circle time. By
midyear, there’d be sly little hints dropped that maybe Henry’s
parents should think about medication for attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder. Many of the other boys are on it, and they
find school much easier.
By elementary school, Henry would be lucky to get 20-
minute snatches of recess. During one, he’d jump off the top of
the jungle gym, and, by the time he hit the ground, the
supervising teachers would be all over him for breaking the safety
rules. He’d get in a serious wrestling match with his buddy
Falstaff, and, by the time he got him in a headlock, there’d be
suspensions all around.
First, Henry would withdraw. He’d decide that the official
school culture is for wimps and softies and he’d just disengage. In
kindergarten, he’d wonder why he just couldn’t be good. By
junior high, he’d lose interest in trying and his grades would
plummet.Then he’d rebel. If the official high school culture was über-
If it valued cooperation and
nurturing, he’d be über-crude.
sensitivity, he’d devote his mental energies to violent video
games and aggressive music. If college wanted him to be focused
and tightly ambitious, he’d exile himself into a lewd and
unsupervised laddie subculture. He’d have vague high ambitions
but no realistic way to realize them. Day to day, he’d look
completely adrift.

Can you please check the story?*As fast as possible I have just 20 min*

Last week, I was looking after two little girls as a babysitter. The parents liked clowns and had a big collection of them. They even had a special room for their collection.

That night, the children were playing in this room. Many of the clowns were just statues, and some were life-size. The biggest clown sat in a small rocking chair. I started to feel more and more uneasy about this statue. I felt as though the eyes were looking at me all the time. I decided to call the parents. "I'm so sorry to bother you, but may I move this clown in the rocking chair. It's starting to scare the kids and me", I said."What clown are you talking about? I don't remember a big clown in the chair. Are you sure?" the mother asked hurriedly. "Yes, I'm sure, It's sitting right here. I'm looking at it right now", I said."Take the kids and get out of the house, now. Run to our neighbors. Call me immediately when you get there, the mother said. Frightened and confused, I took the kids and ran out. When I and the kids came to the neighbors, I called the mother. "What's wrong? Did anything happen? Are you all okay?" The mother asked. "Yes, we are fine, I said. "But you were in danger. It happened again. Soon we will be there with the police, I'll explain everything when we get there", said the mother.

Later, the parents explained to me that for some time the next door there lived a neighbor who gave them problems. He was mentally ill. He heard voices. Many times he sneaked into their house and tried to kidnap the children. This time, he dressed up in a clown suit, painted his face, and waited quietly until he had the opportunity to take the children away. The parents informed the police many times. But they didn't have any proof. Now, it happened again. They thanked me, paid me, and drove me home.​

Read this excerpt from "It's My Constitutional Right!"

As the bus moved east along Dexter Avenue, the seats filled up block by block with white passengers getting off work from the downtown stores and offices. The ten front seats went quickly, and soon riders were standing in the aisle, keeping their balance by clutching poles as the bus stopped and started. Just before they reached Court Square, Claudette realized that a white woman was standing in the aisle between the four seats in her row. Clearly the woman expected Claudette and her three schoolmates to vacate the entire row so she could sit down in one of the seats.

CLAUDETTE: The motorman looked up in his mirror and said, "I need those seats." I might have considered getting up if the woman had been elderly, but she wasn't. She looked about forty. The other three girls in my row got up and moved back, but I didn't, I just couldn't.
