How Responsible Are You? by Jacki Vaughan Can your friends, parents, and teachers take you at your word? Do people seem to depend on you, or are they always checking up to make sure you’ve really done what they asked? Take this quiz to see whether you’re responsible and what to do about it. Check the answer that best describes what you would do in each situation. 1. You’ve got a part time job at the community center on Saturday mornings and your friend asks to come over. You a. make plans to see him/her on Saturday afternoon instead. b. call the center to see if it would be okay. c. say yes, as long as they agree to leave if your boss comes in. 2. You’re at a friend’s house and while he/she is in another room, you accidentally crack the frame on one of the pictures in the room. You a. put it back on the desk where you found it and say nothing - maybe he/she will think he/she cracked it somehow. b. tell him or her what happened, and offer to buy a new picture frame. c. remind him/her of the time he/she lost your science notebook; now you’re even. 3. Your orthodontist tells you that chewing gum can ruin your braces. You a. replace your gum stash with Tic-Tacs. b. cut way back on your gum consumption. c. ignore him. Your other friends with braces chew gum all the time. 4. You’re on the computer chatting with friends and playing around on Instagram, and your older brother or sister just found out that one of his/her friends from out of town has a little time to video chat. He/she would really like to chat with his/her friend, but it’s your time to use the computer. You a. ignore your brother/sister. They can chat at another time –(the world wide web is open 24 hours!) b. get off the computer and let your older brother/sister chat. You can always surf the web later. c. tell your brother/sister to text the friend to let him/her know that they can video chat in fifteen minutes when you’re finished with the computer. 5. You waited until the last minute to finish your part of a history project, and now the presentation is tomorrow. You a. get to work on it right after school and stay up late to finish it. b. stay home sick tomorrow. c. cut one section out of your part so you can finish in time to watch your favorite TV show.
