Laura and Everett are upset about the same thing: punishment!  Laura thinks her mom gave her an unfair punishment for missing her bedtime, while Everett wishes a teacher would do something about his bully at school.  Maybe Laura’s mom isn’t wrong to take away her screen time, but what about when someone doesn’t get in trouble when they should?  Mr. Jacobs takes us to the Bible for answers! (Scripture: Matthew 5:44; 1st Peter 3:9; Revelation 22:12; Leviticus 19:18; 2nd Peter 3:9; John 3:16; Psalm 82:4)

Who would you rather have help with your homework: Mr. Jacobs, or another kid a little older than you? (…Id’ pick Mr. J, too.)
