| #2 Don’t discriminate. | Someone teased me about the church I attend. | I said that I can believe in what I choose, and so can they. |

| #5 No torture. | A friend was trying to force me to dance at the dance. | I told them that dancing was torture to me, and they stopped. |
| #6 You have rights no matter where you go. | A new student is being treated badly. | I stick up for my new friend and roast them back. |

| #14 The right to seek a safe place to live. | My friend’s family was stuck in a dangerous neighborhood. | I asked my parents to help them to find a safer place to live. |
| #15 Right to a nationality. | Someone is from another country, and people ignore him when he asks for help, because he’s different. | I don’t care that he’s from another country, and I help him. |
