P. 15
In the story, Stella explained that there are a few occasions when you should tell a grown-up about the behavior of others. Most of the time, you should try and deal with it yourself. If your thinking is Good Thinking, then you can explain to your friend or classmate why they should or should not do something.
Leaning how to be helpful without being mean is an important lesson in life.
But just as Stella told Tanya, there are some situations in which you should tell a grown-up.
When you see another about to do something dangerous ... get a grown-up.
When you see someone about to hurt another... get a grown-up.
when someone is doing something annoying and you can’t move away from them, and you have asked them to stop their behavior and they continue, and you have told them why you want them to stop and they continue, and you have warned them to stop or you will tell a grown-up and they continue ... get a grown-up.
