Social Class

Throughout this week I have gained greater knowledge on the different social classes, and what goes on. We watched a video on the different social classes. It talked about how the different classes view each other and how they are perceived by others. Two things that really stood out to me was the way the upper class guy spoke. He made himself seem like he was on top of the world, better than everyone, smarter, prettier, and he sounded so ignorant. Then after watching him we see these young kids whose parents have lost their jobs and homes, and all their belongings. One girl was saying how they took all their toys, family photos, and clothing. Hearing these kids talk really upset me because they don't need this, but a lot of neighbors helped out these families which I can relate to because someone my dad knows recently has lost his job, and he didn't have anywhere to go. So we decided that is the right thing to do because if that were us we would need help to, so we took him in a gave him in. Relating back to video that little boy said he doesn't want to go to the bathroom at night because he is scared to wake the people. I don't know how the man feels staying with us, because he has a room in the basement with his own bathroom, but I am sure it is still hard. I learned a lot and know how fortunate I am and for those who are unfortunate more people should learn to help them out because they didn't ask for that, and no one should feel they are better than one another just because they have a ton of money.
