“He [Jeannette’s father, Rex] will not keep me out of harm’s way, he will put me in harm’s way and I have to find a way to remove myself from the situation.” (Diversity Connection). I feel like this quote, from Jeannette, came t directly from the situation where Rex took her out to the bar to help him earn money for alcohol, but yet she still doesn’t see herself as a victim.

Several commentators have opinions as to whether or not Jezebel was as heinous as so many people presume. Collectively, most of the commentators saw Jezebel as the driving force of evil in Kings. In Matthew Henry’s commentary, he refers to the vineyard story and states, “Never were more wicked orders given by any prince, than those Jezebel sent to the rulers of Jezreel.” Additionally, he contributes to Jezebel’s reputation as a she-devil by directing others to us her story as an example of the power that Satan can have in the lives of disobedient people. Henry also views Ahab as a victim of Jezebel’s said “seduction and wickedness” because Ahab had repented in a way that “only might be seen of men.” He concludes his commentary by discussing her reprehensible opposition to God and how she should be used as an illustration of evil to prevent others from following in her immoral path.

The sounds the narrator created in those stories teach the child about sensory properties of the different animals, plants, and objects that exist in her imagination. Definitely, such methods allow Carey to realize how to interact with her environment (Friedman).

Two girls are at a party; one of them takes the other upstairs because she wants to talk privately. The girl tells her friend that she does not want to live anymore and shows her the harm she has already done to herself. This actually happened to a girl from Connecticut, but she saved her friend's life by telling the girl's parents because she knew she could not handle this problem alone. Situations similar to this one happen all the time, but too many of these people do not receive the help they need because we often choose not to tell. Although some teenagers of “To Tell or Not To Tell” by Mary Kate Frank have argued that if you tell on someone you could be labeled as a snitch and lose that friendship, closer examination shows that it’s a good idea to tell someone because it could greatly help someone out or even save a life.

However, once she is out, she decides to stay in Massachusetts, in the same community which has shamed her for so long. Hawthorne describes the decision when he writes, “it may seem marvelous, that this woman should still call that place her home… But there is a fatality… which almost invariably compels human beings to linger … the spot where some great and marked event has given the color to their lifetime” (71). In this quote Hawthorne is not only speaking of Hester, he is speaking of
