Mr. Jones has requested the students find an alternative word but they continue to use it. How can he convince students to not use this word in negative contexts only? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would give the students another word to say. After that I would explain to them how saying that word could hurt someones feelings and how saying that word is like calling other people certain names and that this is not how we treat other people.
