    Molly Mcintire: Summary

    She was from a small family who would do anything they could to be a part of the war effort. Mrs. Gilford, a woman who seemed to be living with them and helping take care of the children, made the turnips from her “victory Garden” so they could save money and not buy canned goods. Knowing she would get in trouble for not eating the turnips, Molly abandoned her plate till her mother came home and saw what she left behind. Being the supporter of the family, Mrs. McIntire Knew that times were hard, and turnips were not the tastiest thing in the world. So with a little sugar and words of wisdom, Mrs. McIntire turned the turnips into something delicious. With one obstacle passed, Molly had more important things to worry about, her Halloween costume. Not wanting to be wasteful, Mrs. McIntire shot down ideas that would be costly and outrageous, like Molly’s Cinderella costume idea. Instead, molly and her friends made grass skirts and paper flower necklaces and went as hula dancers. But as the night evened, Ricky sprayed all the girls with water, ruining their costumes. Wanting to get even with her brother, Molly and her friends came up with the idea to embarrass his as much as possible. So the three girls gathered all of the young boy’s underwear and dumped them on top of Ricky’s crush, Dolores. While they did this they chanted, “"I see London, I see France, Those are Ricky's underpants!” But it wasn’t too soon, Mrs. McIntire shows up, disappointed, and orders all the children to clean up the messes they’ve…

    Into The Wild Family

    Being the black sheep of the family isn’t fun because it gives your whole family an exclusive free pass to point out your flaws, differences, and mistakes. June 22, 2015, a day I can never forget nor suppress no matter how hard I try. My family decided it would be nice to all get together at my grandma’s house for a family dinner since some time has passed since we really bonded. I wasn’t all that thrilled to go but had no choice but to go, when we got there everything I was told to go help cook. Being told to go help cook wasn’t the problem, the real problem was the reason for having to go help cook was because I’m a female meaning I’m ‘required’ to cook and clean for the male species. This annoyed me because we live in the time where all…

    Feral Children

    “... Are we a product of our genes or are we a product of our experiences?...” (Perry, Wild Child: The Story of Feral Children, 2002). For years researchers debated whether or not nature or nurture contributes the most to the development of a child. This can continue to be debated in the case of feral children. Feral children can be defined as children who have been neglected. These children have limited or no contact with humans. Feral children or wild children are deprived of the love and care from family. Feral children lack social and emotional skills. That is to say that a feral child is unable to feel empathy. It has been reported that some wild children survive in the wilderness, raised by animals or raised in isolated confinement. How does this condition affect the behaviour and development of these children?…

    Feral Child

    I'm sure you may have heard of wild or wolf children, also known as feral children. These are human children that have been neglected and raised with little to no human contact. Some have been raised in the wild by animals, mostly by dogs, wolfs, or large cat breeds. Other feral children have been locked up or left alone since birth. These children mostly confined and denied all social interaction with others. There are hundreds of cases of wild children from around the world but one special case struck my attention. The case of Madonna is one of the vaguest ones. All of the names and locations in this article have been altered to insure the confidentiality of the girl, her care givers, and her foster families.…
