impudent
Even Jamie was picked by an old woman, but Ada managed to drive her off by
making slanders about his characters–that he’s a kleptomaniac*, and that he bites.
So, she’s basically the only person left out, but why her?
Congenital skeletal malformation, especially in feet, leads to uneven distribution of body weight to both
knees and legs and it’s not strange that there will be telltale signs that indicate it - slouched body, for
example.
Then how exactly are we supposed to judge people? This is a matter of much contention and usually the
decision is entirely entitled to individuals. But our opinion is that we should abstain from making any
‘subjective’ judgements about a person and most importantly, remarks that ‘generalizes’ the person’s
behavior.
Generalization of human behaviors is an act of framing, and of utter stupidity. Human beings are
complex.
An act of altruism, favor or even a seemingly spiteful act can never be described as happening because
that person is like ‘that’
Discussion 2
Why did Ada's mother let Ada be socially secluded?
Our Answer
I think the reason Ada's mother socially secluded Ada was to prevent Ada from
becoming independent. The mother, who hated Ada's very existence so much
that she banned Ada from looking out the window, thinks Ada is a mistake in
her life. So it seems that her mother locked up Ada thinking that if she acquired
knowledge of the society and the vast world beyond, she go out of the house with
a renewed sense of herself as an independent being and eventually run the risk
of letting her disability shown to people, thus tainting her(the mother’s) fame, if
any.
