text: When you get others opinions it opens up your mind to all the possible options you have. Their opinions help you get your mind thinking and as people, we are built to solve the problems that life gives us. Other people may have more experience than you in some places and some may have even experienced this themselves. When I first started middle school I had no idea what I wanted to do or where to go, so I went to my brother for help. He went to GEneric_School all 6 years and experienced middle school. He gave me comfort while I made my decision about my electives. He told me what he did when he first got to middle school and which teachers helped him the most. This helped me a lot knowing as much as I could going into 7th grade. If I didnt talk to him I wouldn't have been so easy to adapt into the new school.
