Sticky Situation

Joy and Adam have been friends for years.  Lately, Adam has been hanging out with kids who often cause trouble.  One day, Joy sees Adam stealing snacks from the cafeteria.  She tries to talk with him about his behavior, but he won't listen.  Joy wants to tell Adam's parents, but she doesn't want Adam to be mad at her.  What should Joy do?

I think that Joy should tell Adam's parents because obviously, Adam isn't hanging out with Joy anymore so it wouldn't really matter.

Joy should just tell a shopkeeper what they did. Yeah they might get mad at Joy but at least she did the right thing.

I think she should just leave him alone if he gets in trouble its not her fault she tried to help but he wouldn't listen.

Joy should try and talk to Adam one more time and if he doesn't listen say she's going to tell his parents, and maybe that will help Adam stop and change his behavior.

Well if Adam is acting that way Joy and Adam should not be friends anymore.

i think that joy should just not say anything to him because she has alrady tried to talk to him and he didn't listen so if he gets caught one day doing bad stuff it wouldn't be her fault she had alrady tried to help

I think that Joy should just tell Adam's parents because Adam is stealing. If Adam gets mad at Joy then she should make new friends.

Joy should tell a adult around the area. Adam probably get mad but stealing is WRONG.

joy should just tell him that he needs to stop his behavior or she WILL tell his parents and if he doesnt listen and she sees him doing more stuff like that tell his parents.

I think that Joy should try talking to him again and say 'if you keep stealing or doing bad, i'll tell your parents' and hopefully that will make him stop stealing. If he doesn't listen Joy should confront his parents.

Joy should tell an adult even though Adam might get mad at her.

I think Joy should stand up to Adam and I think Joy should tell Adam's parents secretly.

I think Joy should tell Adam's parents that he's stealing because first it's snacks from the cafeteria,then suddenly it's Cash from a bank! Also, if Adam gets mad at Joy she can prove to him that stealing is bad. She should say that he can still be friends with the bad kids just don't do what they do try to get them to stop.

I think Joy should just go away from Adam because she tried to stop him but he didn't listen so she should just go away
