school help: well i have this forgien exchange student from the czech republic. - Help.com

Instead of acting like a brat, why not make this Czech student feel welcome and not only make a friend for life, but further international relations? You have a golden opportunity here, and you are flat wasting it.

i would, i have tried very hard to be his friend and in fact at first we were good friends you could have asked anyone, and i know i already have known a friend from czech that was an exchange student who i in fact took to prom and i still talk with her and now her brother is in the states and i’ve talked with her brother who is now here recently

Good! Now, remember . . . this student is a stranger in a strange land. Be his friend! Don’t get upset over small stuff! Imagine how you would feel if the situation were reversed!

Remember the rules of hospitality . . . you need to go out of your way to make him feel welcome. Get him to talk about things in his country, and remember that his country was ravaged by the Nazis. His family was undoubtedly greatly affected. And his country recently split away from the former Czechoslovakia, and its economy isn’t the greatest right now.

Also, the current situation is not forever. Tough it out. Be gracious. Be hospitable. One day this student could be a prime minister, and he’ll be charting a course for his country . . . and he’ll be thinking how he was treated in the USA when he makes his decisions.

ty i know that and it jsut takes that outside influence to push me along

Good! Now go and be a great ambassador for your country! ;-)
