I agree with Rose's decision

I agree with roses decision because hazel needs the education and care. Rose did the right thing by telling the police she murdered her husband. i think that the ending was good

I agree with Rose's decision because I would be able to hide with my daughter and live with guilt of killing someone.  I think she made the right  decision putting hazel back in school.  I think hazel had this plan all along to give herself up. If

I think that was a good way to end the book because most people were thinking

i do not agree with roses decision because she is taking such a big risk with her daughter and the police she will never know what hands her daughter will be put into. rose does not know the punishments in prison maybe even death. i felt the ending was rushed or incomplete i wanted to here what happens to rose and/or hazel

# data[].attributes.body
I do agree with Rose's decision because she confessed but she lied to hazel she said she was going to Vancouver. But since she confessed she is going to jail but that also means its going to be hard if she ever wants to get Hazel back. I think the ending was good because rose told hazel she's going to Vancouver but instead she turned herself in. I think she did that because if she tried to get to Vancouver it's going to be hard and this way by turning herself in she doesn't have to run from the cops anymore

I disagree with her decision, she lied to her daughter 3 times, she said that
1. she is going to Vancouver
2. she will send letters
3. they would meet up someday.
Besides, if Hazel would find out about this she would fall into depression.
Rose could have explained the situation to the police and maybe she would only have to face a few years in prison instead of her whole life, maybe Rose will actually be killed for her deeds.
Moreover, Rose doesn't  know to who Hazel will be given to, they might be abusive or even worse, in my opinion it is not worth the risk.
Also now Hazel will never see her mother again.

I agree with the decision that rose made. It would be hard to hitchhike all the way to Vancouver with her and I think hazel deserves a better life. She can still have a full family, education and a proper home. I do not think she should have dropped her at the school though. What if they find out about what Rose did? What if they do not find a foster home? I would put more thought into it and find a family member or if not drop her at the foster care station. I just did not think it was smart to do that. I also do not agree with why she did turn herself in. I know she killed her husband but I would have followed through with the plan and left for Vancouver that just makes it harder for her to see hazel again.
I feel that that was a good way to end the book and that makes me want to read more. The ending was also predictable that rose would leave Hazel.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes. Rose did the right thing and what was best for Hazel. Even if Rose might never see Hazel again, Hazel will be better off with a foster family.  And if anything happens Hazel always has Emma.  Rose finally put Hazel's needs before her own. And even though I don't think it's right that Rose lied to Hazel but I think Rose lied to spare Hazel's feelings. But because Rose lied Hazel when Hazel is older if she never gets an email from Rose she will worry or think that Rose doesn't love her anymore.
I liked this ending because it really gives closure for the reader. I'm not left wondering what happens next because I can infer that Hazel will be put into foster care and Rose will go to jail. But I think If I wrote this story I would leave it on more of a cliff hanger so that the reader is left with more questions and wanting to read more. Like if they ended it with us not knowing where Rose was going next.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree and agree with Rose's decision I disagree is because she don't have to lied with her daughter I agree because is a good choice for Hazel.

# data[].attributes.body
I do agree with this situation because what Rose did was bad and she shouldn't have killed her husband in the first place. At fist I was kind of disappointed in Rose when she got the idea to venture of without her own daughter and I thought that Hazel was going to tell the police that she did it, but its a good thing Hazel was telling the truth.

I think the ending was good because Rose confessed and said she killed her husband. I think she did the right thing because Hazel will now be able to go back to school and live in a clean environment. I liked this book a lot and i'm wondering how Hazel will react if she finds out or hears on the news what happened to her mother.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with roses decision because hazel needs the right education and she needs the right care and rose does not  have those things. What i think about the ending that is was really fast i thought they would stay together but they didn't and rose was send off to jail. But rose did do the right thing when she told the cops about how she killed her husband 4 months ago

# data[].attributes.body
Yes I do agree with Roses decision because Hazel can now live her life like a kid. Hazel can still get her education and still enjoy her life. She doesn't have to worry about The police coming to get them and doesn't have to hide . She can now experience what it's like to have a real house, go to a school and have good parenting.

I feel the ending was unexpected because Rose kept telling Hazel that they were going to meet up someday, that they were going to send letters back and forth and it wouldn't be that long before they saw each other again. Rose was getting her hopes up that it wouldn't be that bad. Then Rose turns her self in, So now Hazel will be expecting things that will not happen.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Rose made the best possible choice. If she kept hiding, she would be cheating against the police. By putting Hazel in the care of a foster home, she could ensure that Hazel was safe and could deal with her own problems without affecting Hazel. I don't like how the book ends, as it leaves Rose in a bad position. I don't like Hazel's position either, as she has close to no more chances to see her mother again.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Rose's decision because Hazel still has so much life to live and can still make things right.  She can still go to school and get an education.  I think that leaving Hazel behind to live with a foster family is very hard for Rose because that is the person that had seen and been through everything with her.  At the end of the book when Rose said to Hazel that she was leaving to go to Vancouver she was lying to her because Rose was actually turning herself in and didn't want Hazel to know that because Hazel would refuse for her mom to do that.

I thought that the end of the book was shocking and sad.
Rose had left her child behind and gave her a second chance in life. When Rose was saying goodbye to Hazel she kept switching up how long it would be till she came back for Hazel.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that what Rose did was the right thing to do. Hazel deserved a future, it said that Hazel was one of the smartest kids in her class. Hazel wouldn't have had any future if her and her mom stayed in the shack or moved to Vancouver. Now Hazel's foster parents will be able to provide Hazel with a bright and happy future, even though Rose will always be a part of Hazel. Hazel will learn to except the situation and to be happy. We will never know if Hazel finds out that her mom turned herself in, and we will never know what happens in the rest of their lives. Finally I thought this was a great ending, I kind of wish that it told us about Hazels new life, but it was still very good.

I agree with Rose´s decision. It was the right thing to do in the end. Although she lied to Hazel about how she was going to Vancouver and how it would only be for a little while, it is what is best for Hazel. She shouldn´t have to be scared about living with her mom. I believe that the whole book was examples of how Rose was holding Hazel back in life and throughout the book Rose realized that. Now Hazel can live the happy life she deserves and Rose isn´t running from her problems, instead she faced them. No matter the outcome now Rose put her daughter first and that is what she should have done in the first place. But, lying wasn´t the best thing to do because Hazel will worry.

I think that the ending was a little bit surprising. Most people thought of Rose as a terrible, selfish mother and the ending really changed my mind. She put her needs before her own.

# data[].attributes.body
I think rose did the right thing about letting hazel go into the school and tell the principal what happened so she could get foster parents. I think if rose did not give hazel up then hazel would never be able to have the life she deserves.  Now Hazel will have the chance to grow up and have a nice job a family and a house.

I do agree with what rose did because at some point in her life she would have been caught. It was just a matter of time. Rose would have been guilty for the rest of her life if she did not turn herself in. The only thing that I think Rose should have done was tell Hazel what she was going to do. Hazel would not have liked it but at least she would have known.

I think the author finished the book in a great way. It was not expected and left you thinking of what would have happened next if the book went on.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Rose's decision because Hazel deserves to get a better life, education, and a home. I just think that she should have taken a different approach instead of lying to Hazel. I think she also should've made sure Hazel she got into a good foster home. I think it was a surprising ending because it doesn't tell you what happens to them.

# data[].attributes.body
I do not agree with Rose's decision to leave Hazel. Hazel thought her mom was going to Vancouver and she would see her soon but now she is never going to her mother again. I understand that Rose felt like Hazel could have a better life without her but she is still her mother, and Hazel didn't want to leave her mother. Now Hazel can go to school and get an education and maybe have a better life but she could've done that with Rose. If Rose never told the police about her killing her husband, maybe they would've never found out so Rose didn't have to be so afraid. I do not agree with Rose's decision.

I was shocked when Rose turned herself in. Hazel is thinking that her mom will be in Vancouver and then soon enough she will be able to see her again but actually Hazel will never be able to see her mother. I think it was a stupid decision because now Rose will be living in prison and won't be able to see Hazel ever again. In my opinion living in prison is much worse than going and living on the streets or even going to Vancouver and starting a new life. I think Rose made a stupid choice and now she has to live with it for the rest of her life.  I do like the ending I think it was a strong ending and it was unexpected and surprising.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with roses decision of turning herself in because that was the right thing too do. Hazel will have a long life to live and she still has to experience all these things in her life so i think it was a better decision for rose to turn herself in instead of hazel saying she killed her father when it wasn't the truth. Now that rose did that hazel wont know it will be exactly like she left for hazel but for rose she will be in jail. I thought the ending was very interesting because i did not see that coming at all. I also think that not a lot of other people would have saw that coming.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Rose's decision. As much as Rose is her birth mother and Hazel needs her mom, Hazel needs to get back to a normal life. Its not good for a 10 year old child like Hazel to be running away from the cops. Now Hazel can learn from her foster parents and almost have a new life.  It has always been Hazel's dream to go back to school, now she can do so, she can experience life again. It was also a good idea for Rose to leave Hazel because in my opinion, Rose wasn't a very good mom. From slapping her to  yelling at her,  Hazel needs a mom that can treat her well.

I feel that the ending of the book was very well done. I like how the author left it up to us to infer how Hazel's life will be and how they end up. The ending was unpredictable. I thought that they would run off together to Vancouver and that a police officer would find them and turn them in. I enjoy reading this ending more.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree what Rose did because it secured Hazels future. Firstly, since Rose killed her husband Hazel is considered a suspect because she heard what went down that night and because of that they might use Hazel to get information about Rose and when rose turned herself in, they didn't need anymore information because the Rose turned herself in. Secondly, if Rose didn't turn herself in the police would still be hunting for her and at school if the police come around and ask Hazel about what happened her, she might be asked a lot of questions from other students about what happened, and that might lead to a lot of rumors because she talked to the police but since Rose is gone that wont do that. This is why i think Rose made a good decision by turning herself in

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that Rose's decision was good because for her 10 year old daughter it was not the life for her and she needed a better life than running around being homeless. Hazel ca go to school and have a family. I thought Rose turning herself into the police was smart because she would just be caught at the border if she was going to Vancouver.

The ending was not what I expected it to be as I thought it would've had a little more action. But I did like it. I thought that Rose did the right thing by turning herself into the police. But I was confused at the school part of it because I would've thought that Rose would've just took Hazel to foster care and Rose would turn herself in. But in a way I like the ending and I didn't predict or even had that idea of taking Hazel to school and Hazel and Emma to the principal and telling the principal about what happened.
