Journal #2

Once upon a time there was a young penguin boy named Flipper. Flipper was a young boy with many responsibilities. Flipper was the man of his clan. Unfortunately Flipper's father passed away when his was just a young boy. Flipper had all of the responsibilities of the father figure in the house. Flipper was always the ruler of the house. I think that Flipper was the most important penguin in the household of the whole Frank family. Flipper was always there to remind all of the guests of the house to kindly remover their shoes when they entered the house. Flipper found that this was just a way to show respect to the family that owned the house. Flipper was even in charge of keeping his own friends respectful. He felt like he had to keep the house looking nice so that his mother never had to stress about keeping it clean. Flipper's mother was already stressed about other things, so this really helped his mother out. Flipper also was the person who cleared off the table after a family meal. I think that this is a really good habit to have because i think you should always at least take your plate over to the sink when you are done eating. Flipper was the gentleman in the house, so he was the one who always volunteered to take care of everyone's plates. Flipper also taught all of his friends table manners. Flipper's father was always a stickler about having good manners at the table, so Flipper wants his father to be happy looking down upon him. He is the first person to enforce the use of good manners at his house. Flipper reminds his friends to: take their shoes off upon entrance to their house, not rest their fins on the table at dinner, address adults in the house as Mr. and Mrs., clean up after themselves, and to use clean and respectful language all the time.
