Let's take the case of a school policy change. The school board wants to implement a strict new dress code. The students oppose it as they feel it restricts their self - expression. But the extreme side could be a group of parents who think the school should not worry about dress code at all and instead focus on more important educational matters like improving teaching quality or providing more resources. This extreme side might not be as directly involved in the initial conflict between the school board and the students but has a different and extreme view on the whole situation.
Sure. In a business deal gone wrong. One side might think they were cheated. Another side might think they were just following normal business practices. And the third 'extreme' side could be the view of the employees who are now at risk of losing their jobs because of the deal. Their view might be extreme in the sense that they see the whole situation as a complete disaster for their lives, while the other two sides are more focused on financial or contractual matters.
Sure. In a relationship breakup. One side might feel extremely betrayed, the other side might think they were pushed to the limit. And then there's the side of friends and family, whose extreme reactions or influence can either mend or break the relationship further.
Let's take a story about a new building project in a town. The construction company might say they are doing their best to build quickly and efficiently, but they are facing issues like bad weather and shortage of materials. The local residents might complain about the noise and dust, thinking the company is being inconsiderate. However, the town council, which has an overall view, might know that the building is important for the future economic development of the town and they are trying to balance the needs of both parties.
Sure. Consider a car accident. One driver may think the accident was the other driver's fault because they believe the other ran a red light. The second driver, on the other hand, may claim they had a green light and it was the first driver who was speeding. Then there's the side of the witnesses. Some might support one driver, some the other, and some might have a completely different view based on where they were standing and what they actually saw clearly.
Well, it means that every story has more than just two sides. Usually we think of two sides like right and wrong, but there's often a third extreme side that might be unexpected or overlooked. For example, in a dispute between two neighbors, one side might seem right, the other wrong, but there could be a third aspect like an external factor affecting them both that changes the whole perspective.
Sure. A simple example is a schoolyard argument. One kid says the other pushed him first. But the other kid says he was just trying to get a ball and accidentally bumped into the first kid. Another example is in a courtroom. The prosecution presents a case against the defendant, but the defense has their own version of events which could show the defendant's innocence.
Sure. Let's say there's a fight between two neighbors over a tree that is on the border of their properties. One neighbor says the tree is his and he wants to cut it down. The second neighbor says it's hers and she wants to keep it. The third side could be the view of the local community that values the tree for its beauty and environmental benefits.
Here's an example. A student gets a low grade on a test. The teacher might see it as the student not studying hard enough or not understanding the material. But the student might have been going through some personal issues at home that affected their performance. So, there are two sides to the story of that low grade. Each side has its own valid points, and understanding both can lead to better solutions, like in this case, maybe the teacher could offer some extra help or the student could work on managing their personal issues better.
When a person loses a pet, they often cry. Those tears tell the story of the bond they had with the animal, all the memories they shared, like going for walks, playing together, and the pet being there for them during tough times. And when an elderly person cries while looking at old photos, their tears are stories of their long life, full of love, loss, and different experiences.
It might be a misspelling. Usually, we say 'there are two sides to every story'. If it's 'extreme three sides to every story', it could imply that in addition to the common two opposing views in a story (like two people's different accounts), there is an extreme or unexpected third aspect that also needs to be considered, perhaps a hidden factor, a greater context, or a third party's perspective that changes the whole understanding.
