"I may as well surrender my kids to the devil himself" he said, "as send them down the road to that school".

So when she started to become more independent in life of course there were problems because she had to learn about the way society worked on her own while also finding herself and discovering a world beyond what her childhood was like. - Brianna Tran https://padlet.com/dsidler2/k2i7kd7c0e38rfey/wish/2173390659 2022-05-06 19:45:20 UTC https://padlet.com/dsidler2/k2i7kd7c0e38rfey/wish/2173390659 Aimi Hattori per 6-Q#2 1690491 https://padlet.com/dsidler2/k2i7kd7c0e38rfey/wish/2173397707 The internal conflict is that the author grew up in a isolated family. Growing up she didn't get the education that she wanted due to her parents and their beliefs. The quote " Dad said public school was a ploy by the Government to lead children away from god" tells how she wasn't able to get educated due to her parents beliefs and had problems while growing up because of all that. ]]> 2022-05-06 19:53:13 UTC https://padlet.com/dsidler2/k2i7kd7c0e38rfey/wish/2173397707
