fatherless # 2

The character who standed out the most was moia. because people like her really exist, An some of them cant be saved unfortunately. because of the damage they went through they just feel like living among people is too much. They don't know who to trust and who is really there to help them. so they feel like they have no one in the world . The scene that had really had me at an aw, Is when moia actually took her own life and left a letter stated how everything was going to happen. The reason why I chose moia because i feel as though it might reach out and give them enough courage for those who are in similar situations and are scared to come forward. And i think that if you have a problem such as that you should go to your parent(s) and tell them regardless of the reaction you might get.

One of the reviewers of Fatherless called the characters noble and flawed. Explain this by using at least three characters from the story.

Fatherless choice #2

Which character is the most memorable to you and why? Which scene stands out in your mind? Explain.

Fatherless choice #1

By the end of the book Fatherless, we have some insights into why Mr. Gail chose that title. How does the title relate to his subject and characters?  Explain. (In other words, who is fatherless and how did it happen? What effect does being fatherless have on those who are fatherless?) Really think about this and relate to the book.

The pope likes facebook?!

Young people in particular are experiencing this change in communication, with all the anxieties, challenges and creativity typical of those open with enthusiasm and curiosity to new experiences in life…In this field too [the web] we are called to proclaim our faith that Christ is God…I invite young people to make good use of their presence in the digital world.
