Does forcing kids to sit next to each other make them best friends? Is it worth making others feel miserable?
No, I don't think so. I think that there are plenty of other ways we could fix this situation without assigned seats.
A student named Lila thinks that her school should have assigned seating in the cafeteria on the other hand
another student named josh disagrees and believes that we should not have assigned setting because he
beleives lunch is a time to socialize and he doesn't think that forcing kids to sit next to each other is going to
make them best friends. I believe Cafeterias should give students the choice to sit where they would like.
Students should have the choice of where they sit. First of all Forcing kids to sit next to each other does
not mean they are going to be friends. In fact it actually might start conflicts as well as arguments. Second of
all Lunch is really the only time we can talk, socialize and be a little goofy with our friends and not get yelled at
Finally We work hard during school and lunch is like our little break. I don't know about you but I like having a
break to relax and not think about what I have to do next.
It is true that finding a seat in the cafeteria is stressful and sometimes can put anxiety on others
however if someone would ask to sit by me or at my table I would definitely say yes and get to know that
person. I would never exclude someone and I know that most people would say yes, because I definitely know
how that feels to feel excluded.
In Conclusion I think that we should not have assigned setting for these reasons. Forcing kids to sit
next to each other does not mean they are going to be friends. Lunch is really the only time we can talk and
socialize without getting yelled at and lastly We work hard during school and lunch is like our little break.
