Whats it mean to be an introvert? Is it something I should cherish? Many kids ask themselves this question in High School, and they end up becoming an extrovert because they where told it was wrong to be quiet. The truth is its a gift, a gift i have learned to cherish and live with because that is who I am. I believe all teachers should accept Introvert's choices as working alone, for the other kids only slow them down and copy the answers. I say everyone should support being an Introvert because statistics show that they are less likely to cause trouble.

I really like your comment on introvert vs. extrovert.  I, too, am an introvert, and I agree with you in the sense that keeping to yourself can be beneficial.  It doesn't necessarily mean that you shouldn't talk at all and close everybody out.  I find that I only talk when I find it necessary to talk or when I feel like talking to a certain person.  Thanks for posting your article!
