Blog Question: After the Bully Lab was renamed, the Revealers, and the stories of the three Darkland students were released and well received by the student body, Elliot wanted to publish Russell’s narrative about Richie punching Russell in the face.
1) Why was Russell so opposed to the idea (pg. 110)? Explain. (4 pts)
1) Russell was opposed to Elliot's idea of posting his story about being bullied by Richie because he thought that Richie was changing for the better and he did not want to make people think bad about him. After all, He did help Russell with the Jock Rots where they were bullying him and Richie scared them away. Russell knew Richie was becoming a good person and if people started thinking ill of him he would become bad again.

2) What is happening to the relationship between Russell and Richie. (3 pts)
2)The relationship between Russell and Richie is improving and Richie is treating Russell better then he used to because he had stood up to him on pg 41-42. So now Richie respects Russell a bit more then before. He is kinder now as well. Richie said that Russell could ask questions about him if he wanted in pg 97.

3) Two Peer Comments (4 pts each)
