Homework: Dear Parents /guardians, please assist your child with today’s homework.
Option 3:
Lies and deceit riddle Steve's court case in Monster. From the witnesses, to the detectives, to Steve himself—it's hard to tell who to trust. Some folks lie to save their own skin, while others lie to hurt people, and a few more lie to protect those they love. So it goes in real life, too—we may not be testifying on a stand every day, but lies and deceit surround us. In the end, we've all got to figure out which voices to listen to… and hopefully we'll figure out correctly which ones to trust.
Why do liars lie? Are the reasons in the novel different than reasons for real-life liars? Write a small paragraph response using real life examples (3-5 sentences).
