Why is it important to get to know people before forming an opinion about them? list two examples . : )

 It is important to know people before forming an opinion about them because what we see is not always what it seems. People are bounded by stereotypes or prejudice due to their previous experiences or the images brought on by the media.  For example, a woman is deemed to be a good person because he or she always goes to church and is very active with church activities. However, she may be abusing her children and doing acts of violence on them. This example may be too extreme so here’s another one. Let’s say you meet a person who always wears black, has plenty of piercings and tattoos and does not smile so much. People readily think that he is a bad person and does not have a decent job. But actually, that person has a stable job, is a good father/husband and contributes to society. You will never really know unless you get to know them in person.

Ithink the answer is d.
