Ans-1) Kisa Gotami went to lord buddha to ask for a solution of how to give her son a new life who has already died. Buddha asked her to bring a handful of mustard seeds from a house where no one has died. But Kisa Gotami didn't found a house where no one has died and this is very impossible to find such type of house and Buddha did this purposely  to make her realize that there is not a single house where no one had died and that death is natural.

Ans-2) According to Kisa Gotami, the greatest grief in life is the death of loved ones and no one has the power to stop them from dying.

Ans-3) Life is full of trials and tribulations. Kisa Gotami also passes through a period of grief in her life when her only son died. she became crazy and went from houses to houses to find a cure to get his son back, she became very selfish but at last when she went to Lord Buddha she realized that life is a cycle of death and reborn and no one on the earth is immortal, one has to die one day or the other and no one can stop someone from dying.

Ans-5) The poet advises Amanda not to bite her nails, not to hunch her shoulders and not to eat chocolate. The Poet also  advises her to sit straight and take care of her acne. She further advises her to keep herself clean.

Ans-6) She says that she is an orphan  because she wants to be alone far away from her parents and enjoy being herself. She wants to roam around in the street alone and pattern dust wit her bare feet. She finds silence 'golden' and freedom 'sweet' and this is the reason why she calls herself an orphan.

Ans-7) Amanda feels that her freedom has been curtailed and locked in a room. She is always under her parents controlled and she is leading a controlled life under constant nagging. She wishes for a life free from all the restrictions. She wants to lead a life like a fairy, a mermaid or an orphan.

Ans-8)  It is fact that every person including a young child has his/her own individuality and personality. It is not necessary that the child will see the world according to the direction of his/her parents. All the children around us should be given freedom because it is a necessary part of life and if they do not enjoy their childhood they would not be able to lead a blissful life ahead but it should also be noted that a child should not get excess of freedom otherwise the would fall in bad hands which can destroy their carrier too.

THANKYOU....
