- Walking around aimlessly where the elders are seated.
- Replying back to an elder
- Not replying back to an elder
- Spending too much time without being beaten.
- Stumbling and falling when walking
- Not greeting visitors
- Eating food prepared for the visitors
- Crying to go with the visitors when the visitors are leaving
- Refusing to eat
- Coming back home ‘s home
- Generally being moody
- Generally being too excited
- Fighting with your age mate and losing
- Fighting with your age mate and winning
- Eating too slowly
- Eating too quickly
