Flower for Algernons (post 1, question 9) (:

People who dislike others who are different from them are disrespectful. They make fun of their friends for their ignorance, dullness. They're disrespectful in which they don't respect their peers, adults, and even themselves. Greeting always makes people smile and it's a good thing to do. For example, everyday at school when my friends say "hi" to me, it makes me smile and I feel really happy because inside I know that they respect me. They don't know how to greet others or just to make them feel happy. Instead, they pull you into a joke for their friends to laugh. In the story, Charlie' friends invited him to a party not because they're his friends, but because they want to tease Charlie for his dullness. And when Charlie got smarter, they just ignored him and suddenly left him behind all alone by himself. So I think that people shouldn't dislike others that are different from them but they should respect them and make them feel happy.
