1. Steal for no reason just because they feel like they can

I got that from the mom coming to take her phone since her teacher sounds like Karen

2. Pushover following orders and probably stressed out try to not disappoint parents

I got that from the word ‘unlike’ and ‘curfew parents set’

3. Eat very quickly/almost inhumanly

The hungry and then talking about food it got pretty obvious

4. Kiss up to or bribe into

The mention on escape and then ‘cage’ ‘treats’

5. Weird or strange

‘Denise thought it’ ‘no children’ also common sense

6. Pushed away from or different

Because wolves travel in packs and it says that the wolves got petty and made him be alone and dats not good

7. Throw away

Talking about something broken then talking about it being by the trash can

8. Okay with something simple

Comparing mike with others

9. Lucky, great full/ not taking for granted

How they are talking about having good friends and family cause not many people have those

10. Watch/analyze/see

The teacher in the sentence stopping a fight after wrestling
