Philosophical debates

Theme 1: Is it difficult to make friends?

If you don't have many friends... Are you different? Are you suffering from it? Have you ever felt alone among others? Aren't you cool? Are you afraid of annoying others? What do people think of you? That people don’t think you’re good or funny enough?

If we don't want you... Do you stay in your corner without reaching out to others or do you become aggressive? Do you know children who don’t dare say “no” to be accepted, and who are taken advantage of?

If you have friends... Do you laugh easily? Do you listen to other people's problems, without criticizing? Do you know how to help, share, keep a secret? Do you suggest any ideas for games or jokes?

Theme 2: Do you have friends?

Do you feel rejected by others? Are they making fun of you? Do they refuse to play with you? Are they forcing you to do things you don't want to do? Do you feel alone? Do you feel sad?

Is it because you are different? new ? shy ? good or bad student? brawler?

Do you talk about it around you? to your parents, your mistress? Are you afraid of being rejected? Have you ever rejected anyone? For what reasons?

Theme 3: Do you get angry with your friends?

Are you hurt when someone says something mean to you? Are you holding a grudge? Are you afraid that people will make fun of you if you try to reconcile? Are you jealous? Do you lack self-confidence? Are you possessive in friendship? Do you find it difficult to share your friends with others? Do you smile easily? Can you find the gestures or words that make you happy? Do you accept your friends as they are, with their faults and their qualities?

Are you able to keep the secrets that people entrust to you?

Theme 4: What is racism?

Do you feel different from others? because of your color? your size? of your family? Are you from a religion

different from others? Does it make you sad to be different? Or does it make you grow in your head? Do you find it difficult to talk about your differences? Does this make you aggressive? Have you ever suffered from racism? Or has this already happened to a friend?

How do you respond if someone makes fun of you? (humor, sadness, discussion, action)? Have you ever been racist? Have you asked yourself why? When you're afraid of someone, do you try to get to know them or do you close yourself in your shell?

Do you find that other people's differences are an asset or a threat? Are you tolerant? Can you stand it when others aren't like you or don't think like you? How can we fight racism?

Theme 5: Have you experienced the loss of an animal? (end of 9-11 years)

Did your parents tell you the truth straight away or did they hide it from you? Were you able to say goodbye to him, touch him one last time? Do you miss him? Did you take care of him a lot? Do you have good memories and do you like to remember him? Did you attend a funeral? Have you talked about death with your parents?

Have you thought about other deaths? What to do after an animal disappears? cry ? talk about it? replace it, wait? What does an animal bring you?
