What would you do in this silence? Would you rather not be able to read/write or not be able to speak. What would you do to keep yourself alive. #xuengl205
@mccanne1xu I thought it was surprising as well. I think she was able to develop freedom and a sense of not being tied down to others thoughts that allowed her to be free.
I thought it was odd that Bidi never got any compensation for her work. I also thought it was strange how she never really escaped out of the storage room. Why would Haldar never verbally tell Bidi they left? #xuengl205
@GraceBagadiong1 I think that sexual is what you associate the most with with common people and with Freda saying that she meant that Helen Keller is just like any normal people since she is sexual.
I found it interesting to see how much Freda taught Helen in the short encounter they had and how Freda communicated to Helen both in words and hand motions #xuengl205
@mccanne1xu I agree with you on how poorly the father treated the blind man. Such as Maico getting suspicious of the blind man think of what his father said about how they are getting swindled by him.
@Lichty_Colette After thinking about it I think that they did not like her because she did not fit in their societal values or that the Crugers were jealous with how good they were with there daughter. However, I think this last idea is stretch considering they didn't want to be called mommy.
Why do you think that Mary, the cook, the driver and nana are never given speaking roles in the short story? Do you think there is a reason why we don't get to understand them and their thoughts? #XUENGL205
@pete_cashen@Lichty_Colette I thought it was interesting too. It makes sense to a degree though so they wouldn't get in trouble and would be able to retain the job.
@GabrickMeghan I don't think that they took over the lives of wealthy, they went threw great lengths to get the whole family Jobs, they were the most concerned with keeping the jobs and when the wealthy people were gone they were curious how it felt to have wealth.
Do you think the father was justified to kill the owner of the house or was it unnecessary anger? What did you think of the father in the end of the movie identifying with the past house keeper husband? #xuengl205
@dendadis I thought that it was interesting to hear that as well. I thought it was also smart to bring them to the store. I thought this because it gives the gives perspective on money and what worth money and what's not worth the money
I thought that it was very interesting to read Simpson article. In that I was surprised to hear her viewpoints on what she experienced such as when she talked about rule number. I would have thought dreams would be smaller than bigger. #xuengl205
I thought that it was really cool to see how Micheal finally found who he was and accept himself despite of what others thought of him. I thought in the end the only opinion that matter to Micheal was his own. #XUEngl205
