step 1: express interest and conference for others, espiaclly when they are having problems.

• rationable: if you help others, they are more likely to help you.
• helpful hints: if you see someone in trouble,ask if you can help. sometimes, just showing you care is enough to help a person get through a difficult time.

step 2: recognize that disabled people deserve the same respect as anyone else.

rationale:

• a disability does not make up a person inferior. helping people with disabilities without ridiculing or patronizing them shows that you believe all people are equal, although some people need a little extra assitance.

helpful hints:

• be ready to help a disabled person when needed by doing such things as holding open a door, carrying a packcage, giving up your seat.

rationale:

• saying you're sorry shows that you can take responsibility for your actions and can admit when you've done something wrong.

helpful hints:

• if you hurt someone, apologize immediately and sincerely.

step 4: recognize that people of different races, religions and backgrounds deserve to be treated the same way as you would expect to be treated.

• dont make jokes and rude comments about the color of someone skin or what they believe in.
• some people have different customs for doing things. some poeple have more money than others. no matter what, alll people should be treated the same.
