    Yeah so I came from Brazil to Vancouver last year and a couple months ago I had a crazy Karen come to my door complain my dog was barking too much, she started yelling at my dog even though I repeatedly asked what happened and she didn’t respond but act disrespectfully, telling to keep my dog indoors, I wanted to curse her with all the vocabulary I had but all I did was stare at her for five seconds, grab my dog gently in a way that I would protect him, and turn my back to her.
    She kept yelling for a few seconds after I turned my back but she got the message, she wasn’t even worth a conversation and left right after that, never expected something like that to happen to me here.

    Hey hello. Firstly i want to thank uh for teaching style , I appreciate your teaching style. But in 3 point you 'when someone is trying to make you responsible for something what they have done ' you said we should like your parents are irresponsible for having you.
    I actually don't think this is good to say anything about their parents they have nothing to do with that. We should not be disrespectful towards those who actually haven't done anything.
    We can say direct things do them with taunts not towards their belongings.
