    * What makes a choice right or wrong?

    If you get a compliment then you did the right thing, but if someone yells at you then you did the wrong thing.

    *Does doing the right thing always make everyone happy?
    * no, doing the right thing doesnt always make people happy. doing the right thing is about doing what is right..... telling on someone because they said a bad word is stupid..... telling on soomeone for calling you a mean name is different. if someone is bulling someone else, you should tell your teacher or an teacher. if the teacher or person you tell doesnt listen, you should tell someone else and tell someone until someone listens.

    The first question i picked was does doing the right thing always make everyone happy? And i thinkd no it does'nt because it might not be the choice that they want. if you were tattleing on someone that right choice might not be what they have wanted because that got them in trouble. Same thing if someone is bulling you then you should tell but it will get them in trouble.
    The next question i picked was what makes a cchoice right or wrong? What makes a choice right or wrong is that the right choice is when you do the right thing. Like if someone is truly bulling you then you should do the right thing and report it to the teacher. If you are tattling for no reason then thats doing the wrong thing. You are getting someone in trouble for no reason. These are some right or choices are determaned.

    makin the wrong chocie doesnt always mean u get a negative conqequince. i mean i hve done a lot of wrong things but the outcome isnt always negative. somtimes u can do the wrong thing and have a postative outcome. but most of the time wen u do somthing negative negavtive consequince.so n u do somthing posative there is a posative outcome. my second question tht i chose is when u make the right decition u dont always make every1 happy. for example when ur friends are picking on a nerd or bullying somone. and u stand up for the nerd kid ur making the kid thts getting bullied happy. but ur not making ur friends happy.

    What makes a chocie right or wrong is you feel good when you do the right thing and when you do the wrong thing then you feel bad or guilty and want to go back and change what you did. And thats how you know if you did the right thing or the wrong thing. Umm sometimes when you do the wrong thing it turns out that you have bad consequnes it depends on how bad it is, but usally when you do something bad or wrong you will get bad conseqenses for it.

    Doing the wright thing does not always make someone happy. Poor desicions dont always result in negative consequences.

    Does doing the right thing always make everyone happy?

    doing the right thing doesen"t always make every one happy.Like if one of your friends are being picked on by another friend then u tell your friend to stop.And that your not going to hang with them anymore and u hang with ur picked on friend

    What makes a choice right or wrong is when you think about what your going to say and then think of what will happen when you say it. A WRONG ANSWER WILL RESULT TO A BAD HAPENING. There are a lot of bad things that happen when you say the wrong things. It will result as a bad answer to other people. Think before you act.

    you make the right choice by feeling what you think is right, and what you want to do. sometimes it might be hard or make you mad after it will make you feel good because you did the right thing!


    doind the rigth thing might not make you happy but sometimes you have to do it.

    what i think is doing the right thing is what makes you feel good im not saying if it makes you feel good to murder someone go do it cause im not like if it doesnt make you feel good to donate moneyto africa then dont just do when you know its right and you feel good about it have a great day =]

    People make the right choices when they do the right things, also how you tell is up to you.

    poor decisions result negitive.

    9/16/2009 1:47:43 PM
  • trey galloway

    What makes a choice right or wrong is when you do something right you feel good that you did it.When you do something bad it feels like you got punched in the gut.But when you do something bad its mostly because you want the attention.Same principle for doing something good.people just like the attention.

    No they don't always end up in a negative way because you might make a wrong decision but can end up meaning good
