Rights To All
I believe that I would rule in Anna's favor. That she should have the rights to her own body. Everyone deserves the right to their own destiny and their own chance for a life. In this case Anna is the victim, she has the lost the right to a childhood, and a her own body. In this case I believe that even though I rule for in Anna's favor I have sympathy for her mom, Sara, who in all honesty is doing what any other parent would do....which is anything to save her child.

The Holocaust - An Ultimate Tragedy
The Holocaust... The Holocaust in my perspective was a national tragedy caused by the ignorance of an inferior, immature society. People no matter what religion, race, ethnicity, gender, or strength, should never be treated like those of like the Jewish during this time. The Jews were forced to abandon what they have worked their life for to be dehumanized by a unsympathetic, non realistic people. To me it reminds me of the American settlers killing, robbing, and stealing Indians and their land.

Something To Be Proud Of
In Chapter 10 the children were at their cousin's house and their cousin called their dad - Atticus, a nigger-lover. One time my dad had gotten his identity stolen and someone bought a new car under his name and my mom almost went crazy on him assuming that he went out and bought a new truck, now of course he didn't and the so they called the bank and they told them his identity has been stolen and there was nothing we could do. My mom was so scared that she went crazy. She would be on the phone for hours talking to the police and trying to find out who did this, but more importantly how to get our money. But even through all this stress, anger, emotions, my dad stayed calm. My dad was my mom's rock and he kept positive, saying "we can get through this" and "they'll catch 'em." Thankfully, they did catch the guy, and we did get our money back, but even more impressive my dad chose to not press charges saying that all he cared about was "getting his money back".

To Kill A Childhhod
I could transfer this story to my neighborhood because growing up there was always a group of 3 kids running around, getting into trouble, and going on adventures. The group consist of me and my two friends: Lucas and Tony. We always got into trouble whether it was staying out too late, or dirtying up ourselves, or accidently trespassing into people's yards and prohibited areas. What would change would be there would be no main antagonist - Boo Radley - and Scout would be a boy. I would probably be friends with Scout as a child because I was always the kid to go up and talk to you.
