Melinda got assaulted sexually when she was drunk. She didn't give consent and was not in the right state of mind to give consent. Andy Evans could've convinced her and he should be convicted #tollgvms

Mr. Freeman and Melinda are parallel and similar because they express themselves symbolically, through art and the ways they act. #tollgvms

Melinda's mom didn't handle it well because she addressed her in an uncomfortable way. She made it sound like she isn't good. When she is self harming she doesn't feel like its ok to mess up #tollgvms

Parents should speak openly about things that happen with their children. It will teach them better and they will be able to avoid situations like what happened to Melinda at the party #tollgvms

America should have the borders open because since a lot of people who come as foreigners work a lot harder as the Americans because they want to be recognized and many Americans take it for granted. Foreigners work harder and it is beneficial and helpful #tollgvms

The author decided to add maya Angelou because her and Melinda are similar. They have both been raped at a young age. They both have voices and stopped speaking. Maya overcome this and so can Melinda #tollgvms

A8 #tollgvms Signs that Melinda is struggling is her depression how she is always sad, and how she self harms herself. It is hard for people to pick up the sadness of them. They miss signs because they arent looking for them.

[Edwin A @EdwinAFSUSD]

A5 #tollgvms Rachel and Melinda's friendship changed because Rachel and Melinda have changed, after the party where Melinda called the cops. This is kind of part of how they stopped talking after the party so they grew apart

@RoseJFSUSD #tollgvms I think you should add what her mental pain is

[Edwin A @EdwinAFSUSD]

@t_deago #tollgvms I think you should add how does it control her from her mental pain

[Edwin A @EdwinAFSUSD]

A4 #tollgvms Melinda self-harms to keep herself from getting lost in her mental pain. Self-harm is a form of control to keep her mental pain in check or keep it away by hurting herself
