Ender Wiggin Transformation

From the beginning of the book Ender was labelled a third by the elders he looked up to, he lived and grew up to prove to the elders that being a third does not mean anything and that everyone is the same. This goes along with adults and children, they are the same. Ender also proves this theory wrong by the way he acts. He is a very intelligent boy for the age of six and becomes even more intelligent when he is sent to battle school. He shows the battle toon leaders that although he is younger he can think and do the same as they can. Ender eventually becomes a battle toon leader at a very young age and once again proves that children have the ability to make good decisions without any adult’s help, by succeeding in all of the battles he fights. “Seven battles since your first battle, Ender”, said Graff. Ender did not reply. “And you’ve won seven battles, once a day.” (Card-228). Ender is a very dependent person and throughout the whole book he did not need much help from any adults. By the end of the book Ender proved that children can make fully intelligent decisions by themselves, without the help from adults, before they become adults

‘I am just like Peter,’” (Card 8). Ender´s realization “I am just like Peter” creates a sense of danger because Ender had attempted to dissociate himself from his brother in order to not turn into an aggressive person, for all of his life. Ender realizes that once they “Take [his] monitor away, and [He is] just like Peter”(Card 8). The readers are forced to feel the same sense of unknowingness that Ender feels with his newfound recognition. This creates a sense of danger because the reader likely desires to know what will happen now that Ender finally realizes he is just like his brother and is unsure of how to cope with that.

He becomes so reckless he doesn’t even realize he’s hurting someone until after they are on the floor, “It took Ender by surprise he hadn’t thought to put Stilson on the ground with one kick” (7). What Ender doesn’t realize is that he doesn’t even comprehend what's going around him until he see’s the damage. Just like Peter, Ender never leaves anyone without any pain when they are angered. Filled with hatred towards Ender, Peter never leaves a chance to physically hurt Ender, he hurts him so much that Ender repeats the same anger and ruthlessness towards others.Funny thing is that even Ender knows that he has Peter in him and that in reality, he’s not really the innocent kid his sister and family thinks he

139). In the beginning no one cared about little Ender Wiggin. Ender had no friends and he also had zero respect. Now right as Ender is getting more friends, everyone is giving him so much respect. He has improved so rapidly and people are almost scared of him, which leads to Ender getting all of this new respect. He feels like there is a wall between him and his friends, because now he has to relate to them on a whole new level. At first he could talk with them and be a kid around them, and now it is like people expect him to act and be more mature . Another quote that proves my point is “Ender Wiggin crying?” (Card. 151). He can not do things without people finding out, and they put him on such a high pedestal that Ender can not do certain things without getting

Ender did not have a good childhood. At the age of six he was changed from a little boy into a soldier in a six year old’s body. He was worked to the breaking point and even had a mental breakdown. Ender was take by th I.F. so that he could be trained to save the world, but he didn’t know that this involved, blocking all forms of contact with his family and being pushed to be perfect at everything until he had a mental break down. Somehow he managed to win the war, but as a result he became a young man with no friends and no life. Ender’s Game, by Orson Scott Card, demonstrates the effects of taking away children's rights by working them too hard, forcing them to solve every problem themselves, and are forced into armed combat against each other.

Ender Wiggin was a timid boy who wanted to have his brother and parents to love him. Prior to joining the Battle School, Ender did not have the belligerence that he would soon possess. He did not want to be like Peter, so

On page 31, Card writes "The fear stayed, all throughout dinner as no one sat by him in the mess hall. The other boys were talking about things- the big scoreboard on one wall, the food, the bigger kids. Ender could only watch in isolation." Even in a new environment where he knows no one, Ender is still isolated and cannot manage to fit in with the other kids at battle school. As the story continues, Ender manages to make a few friends but he never becomes exceptionally close with anyone due to the fact that he is not like the others at battle school which the commanders such as Graff make very well known. Ender is much more intelligent and quick minded than the others, making his advancement in battle school quite rapid, leaving his acquaintances and the few he calls friends in his shadow. Ender's skills make him isolated since no one can even come close to defeating him, thus he cannot relate to his peers. At the beginning of Chapter 15; The Speaker of the Dead Ender, Ender is not brought back home to earth. Card formulates, " At first Ender believed that they would bring him back to Earth as soon as things quieted

These people wanted to manipulate Ender’s natural character by taking him from those he loves, Forcing him to depend only on himself and not need assistance from anyone. While this learned self-reliance looks good for the I.F, Ender will break after being detached from everyone he grew close to during this book. My point is the fact that it changes the way a person behaves, this passage explains how after they completed what they wanted to do (isolate him)he became depressed. I feel that a message the author was trying to send was that no compassion for the way someone else is feeling leads to ruthlessness. The people that were talking about Ender did not care for the fact that they were making a six year old depressed, this ruthlessness changed a shy boy into a sad, lonely

Firstly, once Ender arrives at the Battle school, at the age of only six years old, he initially faces many difficulties with assimilating into his launch group, along with the other children, "The other boys talked and joked and bragged and laughed. Ender kept his silence. He toyed with the idea of trying to be like the other boys. But he couldn't think of any jokes, and none of theirs seemed funny. Wherever their laughter came from, Ender couldn't find such a place in himself."

Ender has been made an easy target because he is an outcast. His character is a smart boy who is constantly being bullied for something that can't be controlled by him. “No, no, I don't want your help. I can do it on my own, you little bastard, you little third” (Card 2). Ender is described from his brother Peter not important. That Ender is just a third kid and nothing else is important. Peter calls Ender a bastard only because Ender is smarter than Peter and Peter wants to be the smart perfect child.

Have you ever been so angry that you could kill? Maybe not, but that is normal for a character in Ender’s Game. Peter, Ender’s older brother makes many actions that can be explained by resenting Ender, being mad at his parents, and upset with himself and his sister, Valentine. In the book, the main character Ender is recruited to be trained to help fight a battle against the Buggers, who have attacked Earth twice.

What really caused Ender to really think about; the account of people that he can really risk losing people, horse power, and the opponent's strategies and weakness.With the weakness and strategies this can cause the Ender to find the solution. An example in the book , is when Enders tram had to face 2 teams at once. They thought that this wasn't fair but they still managed to win

Ender is different from the other boys because he wasn’t laughing and joking around like they were. Ender couldn’t recall any jokes, and theirs didn’t seem funny to him. “He was afraid, and fear made him serious.” (Card, page 28) Ender seems like the outsider of the group. He is acute and reserved, while the other boys are boisterous and rowdy.

In the book Ender keeps comparing himself to his older brother Peter. The only reason Ender kept comparing himself to peter is because he hurt and killed people. Other then that Ender is not like Peter. It is true that Ender thinks he’s like Peter but it is false because Ender has a better mind then Peter. He hurts people for a good reason unlike Peter.

In the book Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card, it starts with ender in school and being made fun of. After he beats up a bully, he goes home to deal with his brother Peter who also bullies him because Ender is a better specimen than Peter was. But what no one expected was that a representative from the military came to invite Ender to Battle School up in space. Ender accepted and went to live up in Battle School for years to come. At first, Ender was hated for being such a talented student at the age of six but was soon respected after he was able to beat all the other armies with just a bunch of little kids. Ender became the best soldier at Battle School and was moved up to Command School where he would learn to command
