Mahmouds mom did the right thing because they would have kept at least on person alive with the bloodline in a good world.

# data[].attributes.body
they could've let the kids join but like they said there was no space and it is better that 10 people live and 3 kids die than all 13 people die

# data[].attributes.body
Considering that if they risked it, you wouldn't know if they would let everyone on the boat. That makes even more people stranded on a island.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel mahmouds mom did the right thing

# data[].attributes.body
she prioritized the safety of the child first and the chances of survival.

# data[].attributes.body
they have to sacrifice to at least give a chance to live a normal life

# data[].attributes.body
The sacrifice Mahmoud's mother made was giving Hana to a stranger on another boat. Hana was going to die if they kept her. The mother wanted her daughter to be safe, even if it was someone else.

# data[].attributes.body
They sacrificed hana for her own safety since she is so young. I like that elaine was saying that it would be better to give a family member up rather than watch them die.

# data[].attributes.body
for letting hana go. but they should of known were she went so they could visit her again.

# data[].attributes.body
Mahmoud and his mom make a sacrifice of giving away their little baby Hana away so she could be safe and not die at a very young age. They didnt want to give Hana away to some random people but they had to to save Hanas life.

# data[].attributes.body
the life jackets were sold by a child, it probably wasnt good one bit. But maybe the child was a refugee and needed money for his family. but we know life jackets cant save your life

# data[].attributes.headline
I think the boy got scammed and he was in such a desperate state he sold it to others not knowing is doesn't work

# data[].attributes.subject
I think the boy got scammed and he was in such a desperate state he sold it to others not knowing is doesn't work

# data[].attributes.body
because the boy wouldn't eb advertising so much and to only refugees if he didn't know.

# data[].attributes.body
I think he might've not known that the life jackets were fake.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with him because he talks about the sacrifices Mahmoud's family made.

# data[].attributes.body
Because it describes the current situation of the refugees. They also describe how the people made good use of them.

# data[].attributes.body
I also agree with kexin that it is a terrible thing to do to a refugee to scam them even after they need the money more than they do

# data[].attributes.body
because they actuly thought that the floating thingy, i forgot what is was called, would save their life, but it didnt

# data[].attributes.body
they dont have a job anymore so they cant get checks anymore, also a life jacket cant save your life 100% but it can help you a bit. I dont understand why they really thought it would.

# data[].attributes.body
the mom was drowning and she had to save her daughter so she is forced to give up her daughter

# data[].attributes.body
Because she included the highs and the lows of saving the baby.

# data[].attributes.body
the lifejackets did not work

# data[].attributes.body
i like how she connects the fake life jackets to how they would have been useful with Mahmoud's mom because of hana

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Kexin because there lifejackets did not work

# data[].attributes.body
The lifejackets weren't affective.

# data[].attributes.body
Because they included the ending and the problems.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Lev because he gives a solid answer and explains the figurative language.

# data[].attributes.body
but to add on it says that each journey is also like a verse of her life (song)

# data[].attributes.body
She explains it like different parts of the song.

# data[].attributes.body
Because he used discriptive detail on Isabelle explaining her life.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that that the waves are not the only reason why she remebered that paticular storm. I agree with Elaine because she added more detail.

# data[].attributes.body
because she is describing the backround and setting.

# data[].attributes.body
because she uses the flashback to connect to the present

# data[].attributes.body
it uses many types of figurative language

# data[].attributes.body
The water reminded them of that flashback.

# data[].attributes.body
castro did not protct them

# data[].attributes.body
if castro said something lita would of survived

# data[].attributes.body
nobody really knew when a hurricane would come so it just randomly popped up basically.

# data[].attributes.body
because they described what type of figurative language was used and how it was used.

# data[].attributes.body
but to add on to that they regret not helping Lita and Isabel can't live with two family members dying so she dives into the water to save her family

# data[].attributes.body
because she is going deeper into detail about the warning of the tycoon or something and how she addresses the use of figurative language

# data[].attributes.body
I agree because it is true that Castro did not protect them from the waves.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with her because she adds more detail to Sasha's answer. She really explains the emotions.

# data[].attributes.body
Nobody knew that there was a hurricane.

# data[].attributes.body
because lita dies of a storm and if they were to know then they would actuly take cover and lita would of been alive
