Is social distancing that we all have to practice now difficult or easy for you? Why?

Due to the corona virus we need to stay home away from other people. The fact that I can’t see others doesn’t really bother me that much because I can talk with my mates over social media or when we decide to play some video games together. The fact that frustrates me the most is that I have to sit at home. Over the time I am becoming lazier and lazier. At first it was awesome to take a breather from going to school every day but at this point sitting on my behind is extremely tiring.

Do you think the response of the Polish society and government to the coronavirus epidemic has been appropriate?

In my opinion the response of the Polish society and government is not appropriate. I admire the hard work of the health institution and government but there should be made some major changes. I know from experience because i live in Bileany that people don't take this whole thing seriously. I see people walking around in groups of friends from my window. It's not only teenagers but adults too. This is the easiest way to get infected with this virus. Even if you think your have a great immunity there are still vulnerable people that are close to you. For example your parents or your baby sibling. I think the police should give people punishments for doing those actions.

Is the impact of globalization on our life positive or negative?

In my opinion the impact of globalization has a positive impact on our lives. I am fully aware of all the negative points of view but in my mind the good overcomes the bad. Globalization caused many deadly disease but also it helped us come up with cures for them and many other infections. Also it helped us discover other civilizations and now we can aim toward a better future together. 

Is lying morally wrong?

In my opinion we can’t state that lying is bad or good because it depends on the context and situation it is used in.  Everyone lies to make the other person feel better which I think is not morally wrong, instead it is for the benefit of both people. For example, when someone ask you to rate their look and you don’t want to ruin their self-confidence, you lie. Off course there can be bad lies that hide something bad that you did. In a situation like that lying is a bad thing.  So, after all I think this is a debatable subject that we can’t be sure about.
