I infer from the quote that because Stargirl is a free spirit she does not feel bound by the same social norms we do. Therefore, she feels no obligation to go by her real name. Also, I believe based on Stargirl’s actions throughout the book; she is saying that you need to stay true to yourself and not let anyone or anything decide who you are; not even your name. Further, I surmised that she feels it is okay to be different in a society that is always telling

‘The Adoration of Jenna Fox’ by Mary Pearson tells the story of Jenna Fox, a teenage girl who wakes up after being in a coma for one year after a horrific car accident.

What does “being a human” even mean? The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines human as relating to or characteristic of people or human beings. According to scientists, humans are multi-celled organisms with human attributes. These definitions are not wrong, but they do not explain the importance of actually being human. I mean humans literally rule the world. The definitions of being a human also include having character, personality, and feelings that differentiate between each of the eight billion people on this planet. In other words, people are more than just a nose, two arms, two legs, a head and so forth. We have duties, we have responsibilities, and we have moral standards. During the Victorian Era, Rudyard Kipling’s “If”,

Imagine a world where parental expectations did not exist for children entirely. Should they really be in place? While some people may argue that parental expectations may be too much pressure for offspring, they usually keep children’s behavior rational, have an impact on their children and their future, and goals are usually a source of motivation to do better. First, the reason parental expectation is set in place, to begin with, is to regulate children and their actions. Second of all, having certain achievements to meet has a significant impact on children and their future. Lastly, the need to meet accomplishments set forth by the head(s) of the family serve as a way to improve on one’s self for children. For these reasons, parental expectations should be made.

“Children shouldn’t have to sacrifice so that you can have the life that you want. Instead, you should be the one sacrificing, so your children can live the life they deserve.” (Schulz). In this generation, many people have the power to change and rearrange given traits and qualities of their children to “create” the perfect child. Parents are believed to be the role models in a family relationship, and building the perfect child negates that influence. While controlling a child can keep them from making unwise mistakes, parents should not be allowed to design their children because it takes away from the freedom of the child, leads to the ‘unknown,’ and counteracts God’s plan.
