I think her life is better in California. When she was in California she learned life skills when her mom was sick. The took care of the babies and chores around the house. Which made her more responsible. Also during harvest season she learned how to pick the food, which made her learn how to cook

I think she has a better life after a year in California. While in California she learned a lot of valuable lesson and became more mature. In California she doesn't have to deal with an uncle that wants to marry her mom and send her away. In California Esperanza learns how to take care of herself and others. Social class doesn't determine her choices so she is free to do what she wants.

I think her life was better in a Mexico, because she didn’t have to worry about any struggles. She also didn’t have to do things on her own, and she was with her whole family and they were all healthy. In Mexico she didn’t have to work all day and keep on gaining stress. She was also rich and she didn’t have to get her own water for a wash, unlike in California where she has to get her own water. She also had all of her friends and memories in Mexico and she only has Marta and she misses her old life while she is in California.

I believe that she was happier in Mexico, but her happiness was taken away when Tioulois became a “threat”, and when her father died. In Mexico she had want she wanted and would have learned to live a little simpler with the money that Abuleata had saved. In America she was free from her uncle and the marriage that he proposed to her mother. A down side to being in America is that she was being judged by people who had bad experiences with other rich people. Also in America she learned many things and was able to take care of herself and even help others. Overall I think that she should stay in America and start her new life with Abelitia and her mother.

I think her life was better in California. In California she learned valuable life skills that she might not have learned in Mexico. In Mexico she was spoiled with fancy dresses, dolls, fiestas full of extravagant food and dancing. I’m California she has learned how to sweep, how to care for babies, and how to care for others. She has become a better person.

I think her life was better in California because she learned alot and she just seemed alot happier. Toward the end she even said she felt like she was floating because she was so happy. She learned alot of life lessons. Also when she was in California she didn’t have to worry about Tio Luis, so she had a better chance at not getting hurt or not getting more of her family taken away or them getting hurt too.

I feel that her life is better in America because she's safer here. She has also learned a lot of new things. Esperanza  gets to know what it's like to care for other people. She also knows how to work well with other people and on her own.

I think her life would be better in California, because in Mexico she would have to deal with her uncles. Her uncles would have had her doing all the thing they want her to do. They would make her be perfect because they need her to be that way to get more points for the election. In California she can leaned things she hasn't had the chance to. Like how to take a bath by her self. If she doesn't have theses opportunities now then she would not be able to do it in the future. Now she can earn her own money. Her uncle would probably want to get rid of her. In California she would have the opportunity to
, say start a business. Like the China man in the shop. So they have things that they can do to make things better

I say it is better now in California than Mexico. She did have a lot of good memories and friends in Mexico, but Tio Luis and and Tio Marco wanted to take the land and Tio Luis wanted to marry mama. In Mexico she went through really hard times with having to separate with Abuelita and mama getting really sick. Esperanza had to work to raise money to help mama with the hospital money and getting Abuelita to California. Esperanza made friend in California and learned about what other people are going through and becoming nicer and more considerate. Miguel helped get Abuelita to California and Esperanza had her family together and was happy and started over.

I think she had a better life in Mexico because she was rich and had everything she ever needed. I like her personality in America better because she has learned alot  and become a better person. If her uncles hadn't ruined her life in Mexico she could have had a perfect life. She has become a lot better person over having to move.

New Mexico because I don’t want her in AMERICA. She had a nice farm she could fight for. She could end up making it hers. And she could live happily ever after not in AMERICA. She could not have gotten sick and she wouldn’t have to go through any trouble.

I think her life was better in California because she has learned a lot of valuable life lessons. She has matured and understands a lot more now. She's gained a lot of skills but in Mexico she got everything handed to her. It's important to learn to do things yourself. She has everything she needs in California and she's happy with it.
