Fighting With Family

          

Fighting doesn't just hurt you!

            Fighting with family members is a big conflict that affects a lot of people, but mostly teens in the urban youth culture. I have many personal examples with fighting because when I was younger my brothers used to fight over the most ridiculous things or things they could have handled by talking. I also had to deal with my parents arguing, and it came to the point that my parents had to split up from each other. Fighting has affected my life, but if I can be strong enough to handle it, I know you can too!

            In my independent reading novel, fighting was a little problem but, it’s affecting the characters in the book called Blood Is Thinker by Paul Langan and D.M. Blackwell. The conflict dealing with the main character, Hakeem and his cousin name Savon. Hakeem found some money of Savon’s and he wonder, how did Savon get all thing money? Hakeem knew there was a robbery the day after. So, Hakeem thought to ask Savon about this than go tell someone knowing he doesn’t know the whole story. Then when Hakeem asked and Savon denied everything. Hakeem is disgusted of Savon attitude ever since he moved there. Hakeem pushed Savon and that caused a fight. So now they can’t even look or speak to each other. Remember fighting is not the answer to anything.

            If you are having similar problems here is some advice: stay positive and try to talk it out. Don’t fight with family members. Thing to yourself, your family will always love you. Don’t push them away. There is some quotes from the book that might help you realize family is the best love, you can have.
