How Did The Genie Make Aladdin's Decisions
Aladdin was not brought up in a regular household, in fact he basically didn’t have a home to grow up in as he had to fend for himself in the city of Agrabah. At a very young age, Aladdin became an orphan, so he was basically on his own from the time he was born. One day, his life completely changed when he met “The Genie.” The Genie would eventually grant him any three wishes. The first wish that Aladdin asked for was to become a Prince. Understandably, Aladdin had never experienced such royalty before because he had been living on the streets in Agrabah. This wish would be quite a change from his average daily life.

    I have also learned to be less judgmental of my peers, since it is unknown what path they have taken or what shoes they have walked in to arise to the person they are today. As Genie’s father had lost his mother in a sudden and traumatic way, this had caused him to, "…quit his job and move[d] his family into his mother's two-bedroom house on Golden West Avenue, where he would live out the last decade of his life as a recluse, with his family as virtual prisoners" (Rymer 16). All of those years, Clark believed that by keeping Genie prisoner, she would be completely well protected and guarded, but it had adversely left her mental retardation running ramped through her damaged life. What exactly would Genie be like if she were not abused and isolated from life itself? The true question at hand is, would she still be mentally retarded, and if so, would the severity level remain the same?

(Nolah) In the novel, The Kite Runner, by Khaled Hosseini, Amirs father” Baba” is greatly responsible for determining the personality of Amir.

    19). This brings readers to another topic that breeds sympathy for Amir. The young Pashtun boy grew up in a big confusing world without the help of his biological mother. Amir grew up not having a mother and knowing little about her. In the evolutionary perspective, every child needs their mother to help them in emotional and physical development. Considering the fact that Amir grew up neglected by his father, Amir never received this crucial experience. Lastly, another factor that contributed to why readers would feel bad for Amir is because of the way the author portrayed the setting. Amir was a very emotional boy and was looked down upon by his father when he would cry. This forced him to go to a private place and shed his tears so he wouldn’t be seen. Amir never had a mother to be there for him. Readers sympathize with Amir because they can understand what an emotional toll being motherless must have taken on Amir, not only as a young boy, which continues to affect him as an…

    In the Odyssey, I think the Gods role was to function as spiritual guides and as support for the hero. Examples being Hermes warning Odysseus of Circe's witchcraft and then Circe giving him directions. Yet, I also feel as if they punish for poor behavior. An example of this being Poseidon delaying Odysses's boat journey with challenges/weather for blinding his son, the cyclops, and then bragging about how great he was.…

After that night I never took another thing for granted because nothing is guaranteed. I live and savor every second…
