Assessment of the quiz
If you have scored:
under 9 Congratulations, top marks, your honesty
shows exactly where change can start.
9-14 You are fairly honest but there is room for
improvement all round.
15 Unbelievable, you are either a saint or a fraud!
With the quiz situations as a background discuss the following
questions:
• Do they ever think of doing something for another member
of their family which would surprise or please him/her?
• If their answer is yes, when was the last time and what
did they do? How did they feel?
• If their answer is no, what could they do and when will
they do it?
• When an argument starts at home is it ever because of their
selfishness?
• Do they get angry when they can't get their own way? Why?
