Justin didn’t say anything. He just nodded. He knew it was better not to let his mother know the truth for her sake. It might put her in harm’s way, and he wasn’t about to let that happen. Justin was glad she had come home when she did because he could tell that this beating would have been bad if it hadn’t been stopped.
This story teaches readers, young or old, to never give up. Like Justin, you, too, can overcome your fears and thrive through abuse. Have empathy where others did not for you. But most of all, be just in your judgment as was Justin.
