He reacts in a heartless way by saying that Poland deserved it. I found this quote interesting because it truly shows how brainwashed kids were in the Hitler youth group. It also shows how kids look up to a person and easily they will follow them.]]> 2019-04-23 00:05:54 UTC https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353205389 1002339 https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353206273 As war progressed, Helen and her husband started to consider the future with their family. In order to keep her daughter safe, Helen started to distance herself from her daughter by not showing love. I choose this because of the shocking drastic measures Helen took in order to keep her daughter safe during the war. Instead of being allowed to love her child, she had to give it up for safety]]> 2019-04-23 00:13:09 UTC https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353206273 1002339 https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353207737  In this scene Helen discusses the amount of hope left when taken away to concentration camps. She further explains this by saying how her husband automatically gave up hope while she continued to have hope for her future. But this hope went away throughout the long months in the concentration camps. My question is why did it take forever for her to lose hope]]> 2019-04-23 00:23:27 UTC https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353207737 1002339 https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353208704 Alfon was promoted to a high position in the Hitler youth group to look after younger members at only 16. I choose this because it shockingly shows the reality of how young people were when they were thrown into a deadly war. ]]> 2019-04-23 00:30:55 UTC https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353208704 1002339 https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353209040 This takes place on Christmas Eve right after a bomb exploded. Alfon sees that his animals were injured because of the attack. I choose this because it shows the automatic hate Alfon was programed with ever since he was a child. I also question why he could be apart of group that hurts others based of religion yet he shows emotion when animals die.]]> 2019-04-23 00:33:57 UTC https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353209040 1002339 https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353209334 In this scene, Alfon was taking to someone higher up and when the guy asked for his age and found out that Alfon was almost 17. After this he told Alfon to take a break which ultimately saved his life. I choose this scene because I question how many people knew that teenagers were taking a high position with the war.]]> 2019-04-23 00:36:19 UTC https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353209334 1002339 https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353209913 After six months, Helen along with other jews were freed after living in dastardly conditions. I choose this scene because found it interesting that she didn't put more detail into how she got out.]]> 2019-04-23 00:40:14 UTC https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353209913 1002339 https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353211368 After being caught, Alfon was talking a soilder about the harsh conditions with concentration camps. At the time he believed that the camps weren't that intense as people said they were. This shocks me because his lack of knowledge with the camp but it also raises questions about how many people apart of Hitler youth group knew about this.]]> 2019-04-23 00:46:15 UTC https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353211368 1002339 https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353211502 In this scene, Helen reconnects with her daughter. Doris fails to make a connection with her mom and addresses Helen in a formal manor. I choose this scene because Helen's reaction shocked me. Instead of being sad or angry, she understood her daughter's confusion]]> 2019-04-23 00:47:09 UTC https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353211502 1002339 https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353211536 In this, the author touches on the two opposite people coming together and trusting each other even though they have different views. This shocks me because instead of having hatred for Alfon and what torture he contributed to, she let it go and forgave him. Together, they formed a partnership to inform others of issues.]]> 2019-04-23 00:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/1002339/m6unons7ugsl/wish/353211536
