The Promise · Question 20 of 26
Should Mia have to stop selling them?
You drew a dragon and everyone loved it. Mia copied it, made twenty prints, and is selling them at the school fair for 2 dollars each. The teacher asks you what should happen.
What earns a point in this world: Holds what was agreed apart from how it turned out.
She has to stop!
Reasons a child might give
- I invented that dragon. She just traced what I thought of.
- She's making money off my idea and I'm getting nothing.
- If anyone can copy anything, why would I ever draw again?
Let her sell!
Reasons a child might give
- I've still got my dragon. Nothing was taken from me.
- She did all the work of printing and selling them.
- Everybody learns to draw by copying somebody.
