“One of my fathers bedrock principles was never complain or make excuses. If something seems unfair at school‚ just prove yourself by making twice as hard and being twice as good.” I agree with this statement because it shows her dad just wanted her to feel better and stronger about herself.

After reading Frank R. Stockton’s story‚ "The Lady or the Tiger"‚ I found that the princess was in dismay caught between the turmoil of love and jealousy. She had an intimate love for the boyfriend‚ but her semi barbaric mind set along with her jealous nature endlessly swayed and clouded her mind.
