According to Downing, author of On Course, when it comes to personal responsibility, there are two ends of the spectrum: creator and victim. A creator is someone who believes they have the sole responsibility for the outcome of their life, they understand that their actions have been ineffective, and strive to change them to “create the best results they can” (21-22). Though he uses different language to explain, Stephen Covey, author of The Seven Habits of
Blame & Responsibility In Homestuck, by Andrew Hussie, the narrator truly states, “Being a kid and growing up. It’s hard and nobody understands.” Kids have to figure out responsibility, relationships, and more as they transition into adulthood. John Conlan and Lorraine Jensen learn many life lessons throughout the book The Pigman, by Paul Zindel, as they meet Mr. Pignati and face the consequences of their irresponsibility.
Responsibility means having an obligation to deal with something. Some people feel honored to take responsibility, but most people want to run away from it. In the book, The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, the author describes what happened in her life starting from her earliest memory. Together with her family, they strive to survive whatever life throws at them. Most of their decisions are made by her dad, Rex Walls, who is also incidentally the root of their problem -- or at least the majority of them. He is a highly skilled and intelligent man but with little to no sense of responsibility and resistance to temptations. We can see this when he was teaching Jeannette, when he tried to stop drinking alcohol, and when he was driving their car as fast as it could go.

This was a straight forward case of cheating. The main character Reggie failed to ask for help with the assignment, perhaps if he he'd asked for help sooner, or described his dilemma, he would have gotten help before it was too late to complete the work. Reggie also deliberately asked Sally if she had read the book, implying that she could help him cheat. He then printed the assignment off the net and told Arnie what he did, thus implementing Arnie in the cheating by making him an accessory. For this reason I gave Reggie the #1 slot of most to blame.
What does it mean to take responsibility? If you ask that question to a classroom full of students you will most likely get various answers but, most of them would agree that one aspect of responsibility is doing the right thing.“The right thing to do and the hard thing to do are usually the same.” This is very much the case in Budge Wilson's short story, “The Charmer”, in which a whole family is not doing the right thing by not telling their oldest child, Zachary that he is doing wrong.The whole family is charmed by Zachary which makes it hard for them to confront him about his actions.Through “The Charmer,” Budge Wilson develops, the idea that individuals can neglect their responsibilities by ignoring wrongdoings displayed by a person
Andrew (Teddy) was a danger to the staff and other patients so if he did not permanently accept reality, right now, he would be lobotomized. In the closing scene of the film Andrew is sitting on the stairs with Dr. Sheehan while the other doctors observe from a distance.

The appropriate practice to help a fourth grader to be responsible is creating a worksheet. I will explain to the student that this worksheet will be my responsibilities. The paper will have four big squares. In each square there will be certain responsibilities. The 1st square will be titled in class I am responsible for. The 2nd square will be titled, At lunch I am responsible for. The 3rd square will be titled, At home I am responsible for. And the last square will be titled, At recess I am responsible for. I believe this worksheet will give these children a better understanding on responsibilities by showing through
Oedipus also showed selflessness when he leaves Corinth to protect his parents. When Oedipus' prophecy is revealed to him he leaves Corinth so he didn’t kill his father, and marry his mother. He displayed selflessness because he could have stayed in Corinth and taken the chance of his prophecy coming true with his adoptive parents, but he left to save them.

3) When a person tells you to be more responsible, what does that mean? What does the choice of the wife as the most responsible person for her own death by 90 percent of my classes tell you about seventh graders’ attitudes towards responsibility? This means that you do the right thing, even when nobody's watching. The choice of the wife that 90% of 7th grade students picked shows me that students are very responsible, because they will own up and confess to their wrongdoings and mistakes.
A second reason is he saw the bird fly out of the airport and last but not least, he is responsible. These are some reasons why Andrew is a hopeful character.

Even though he didn’t have a large quantity of friends, he did have high quality friends. Those friendships prospered because of the things he did for them.
