What makes you cry?
Once, when I was younger, I burned myself on my finger and it really hurt, so I cried. The next day, my mom’s friend’s son came over, and I was lying down on the couch, and the boy put his foot on my hand. It really hurt because he stood on my finger that was burned. Rania Salah,

When a friend or someone in my family cries, I start to cry. Mostly when my mom cries, I usually cry also. When I go to another place, like Pakistan, and when I come back, I cry. Affaf Saleem,
Grade 5, Greendale Elementary
A time when I was crying was when I was in Grade 2 and I was playing a game. I walked into a fence because my eyes were closed. My eyebrow on the left was bleeding and I needed stitches. It hurt very, very much. Shemariah St-Louis,

I cried when I found out that my cat was lost. She has been lost since this summer. Her name is JLo. I miss her a lot. I am sad. Mischa Arancibia,

I cry with joy when I get something that I want. At Christmas, I wanted an iPod. And then I got an iPod. I cried with joy. Crying for joy is much better than crying. Julia Pulice,

Personally, I’m not much of a crier. Of course, now and then if I don’t get what I want, I cry. It was just recently I started crying more often. It was my grandfather’s funeral. We went to church and right there I started crying. I thought about all the good memories we had. Lauryn Santiago,
Grade 5, St. Charles Elementary
There are a lot of things that make me cry. The two things that make me cry are when I get a bad mark on a test or when someone in my family passes away. I don’t cry when I get hurt because I have to act like a man. Another sad scene for me was when my hockey team lost to go to the finals. Anthony Bonta,
Grade 5, St. Charles Elementary
When I cry, it’s usually because I lost something I love and because I’ve done something wrong. For example, I lost my favourite teddy bear last week because I brought it to school for show and tell. So make sure that after you’re done with something you put it away right away. Emma Marie Mazzone,
Grade 4, Our Lady of Peace Elementary School
What makes me cry is when I’m going to a funeral because you lose someone in your family. Like me, I lost my grandfather because of his eighth heart attack. Frédérick Malenfant,
