Making Connections

A number of selections in Chapter Two suggest that students sometimes get mixed messages about such things as sexuality, drinking, and the value of education. Discuss an issue about which you have gotten "mixed messages." Describe those messages and where they've come from, as well as how you've come to develop your own point of view about this issue.

I believe getting "mixed messages" or "mixed signals" is very easy to come by. Some people can give the wrong impression to someone else and they think it means something totally different. In high school I liked this guy and I thought he felt the same way about me. He would text me all the time and always ask to hang out and I thought he liked me too. But after a few weeks he ended up getting a girlfriend and I was very surprised when this happened. I didn't see it coming. Getting mixed messages happens very easily.

  1. Most examples of mixed messages come from highschool. Thats where we still gossip,spread rumors and start drama. You could have took the initiative to start the relationship. What If?
