I think Maya put the death of Mr. Freeman on herself because she didn't know what was going on and she was really confused. Everything at the court room happened so quickly she couldn't comprehend what happened to Mr. Freeman and when he was murdered, she thought it might have been something she said that caused his death.

I do think Mr. Freeman deserves his fate because what he did to Maya was beyond wrong. He took advantage and deeply injured an innocent child. Also, whose to say that he would have stop if Mother never found out. He could have continued to ruin Maya's life for even longer. For these reasons, Mr. Freeman did deserve his fate.

I think Maya belong in California with her actual parents. Stamps, was becoming a problem for the whole family. Bailey was starting to be discriminated a lot by very dangerous people and Maya outgrew the area. California offered them a safe place to live with many opportunities. California gave Maya a better education and a great job. These reasons prove that Maya belongs in California.

I do not think Maya would have stayed in St. Louis if the incident never happened. Maya didn't really like living there and it never felt like home for her. Bailey loved St. Louis and that was part of the reason why Maya chose to stay there. It would only be a matter of time till their Mother realized she could not raise two children and they would be back at Stamps.

I think Maya won't live the rest of her life in San Francisco. I think the first part of raising her child will be there because she needs the help of her Mother. But once she gets used to raising her child she will probably move somewhere else in search of a different job and a man to take care of her. I think it would be very unlikely that she would stay in San Francisco

Mr. Freeman did not deserve his fate. What he did was really wrong and he should have been severely punished, but death was too extreme. I think he should have just been in jail for life.

I think Maya belongs in Stamps because I feel although it was becoming unsafe, she lived there for most of her life and knew Stamps best.

Maya still would have left St. Louis because it seemed like she was just visiting, and Momma's tone when they were leaving, didn't make me feel like they were going to be gone forever.

I think she will stay for a little while and receive some help for her mother with parenting. Then, eventually she will move away to go somewhere else.

I think that Maya was too young to understand what Mr. Freeman had done to her, but she did know that she was associated with his death. This caused Maya to think that it was her fault that Mr. Freeman was killed, there for causing her to blame the death on herself.

I believe that Mr. Freeman did not diverse his fate of being beaten to death. What the people did to Mr. Freeman was murder. Even considering what Mr. Freeman did to Maya, he still does not diverse to have his life taken away from him. I believe that this action was unjust and very wrong.

I think that Maya belongs in Stamps with Mamma. Stamps is where Maya grew up a developed as a child, and I believe that this is her true home.

I think that Maya would eventually come back to Stamps. I believe that stamps is her true home, and that is where she belongs. Even if Maya didn't have her incident with Mr. Freeman, something would still cause her to come back.
