Abstract
This story is one of ten short stories to be published as a P4C program in the education of the emotions in the near future by the IAPC at Montclair State University. It has several purposes as a philosophical story: To identify and compare emotions (anger, fear, anxiety, distress, unhappy, sad, care, embarrassed, surprise, vulnerable, love, longing for ideals); to try to explore the underlying belief of the emotion portrayed; to subject the underlying belief to inquiry to ascertain where the emotion is justified; to model communal dialogue regarding a philosophical issue; to explore philosophical concepts of personhood, friendship, tradition, intellectual virtue, sound judgment and children's rights. These purposes will be explored in the accompanying manual, Emotions: The Other Side of Reason, via discussion plans, exercises and activities aimed at helping children inquire together and think for themselves about the issues. The author, Ann Margaret Sharp, can be contacted at sharpa@mailmontclair.edu
