1A. I think that George always wanted the best for Lennie. The reason why I think this is because of the fact that George could have left Lennie along time ago if he really wanted to but he always wanted the best for Lennie no matter what type of trouble Lennie got them into. Although he did what he did to Lennie I think that George only wanted the best for Lennie and nothing else but the best.



1B. Yes I do think it was the best thing for George to do and especially the way he ended Lennie's life. By that I mean that he let him die with happy thoughts in his head instead of them fighting and leaving his last thoughts as something negative. I also think that that was the best thing that George could have done for Lennie because if not the other people like Curly could have killed him 10 times as worse then George did. Although I think that that was the best thing for Lennie I do not think that is was the best thing for George because now he has to go on living his life thinking about himself as a killer. It will probably make George really depressed and make him suicidal.



2A,B.” Late last year, 67-year-old Beppino Englaro, won an intense 10-year legal battle to allow his daughter's feeding tubes to be removed, saying that was her wish.”(http://www.cbc.com/) This quote explains that the dad knew what his daughter wanted and why would a father choose death for his own daughter without her accepting what had to be done. Your parents always want the best for you so why would they choose the worst thing for you? This father had all the right for doing what he did especially because he knew his daughter wanted it and if she didn’t then that’s on his conscience.

2C. I agree with what the father did because he said that his daughter had told him that if the feeding tubes had to be removed then that’s fine.

3A. I think that the father's main thoughts were that he couldn't give his daughters and wife the life that he thought they deserved. Also the economy could have been a very big part of this situation. Everybody is being affected by the economy no matter how much money people have it is affecting many people. The guy could have thought that he didn't want his little girls to see him in the way that he could have been, getting his house taken away, him having to explain to his daughter that there wont be enough food for all of them and they need to share in equal quantities. I think that all of these things were racing through the fathers head as he contemplated to himself whether or not he should kill the things that he loved most in his life.

3B. I think that parent could enroll their kids in school activities that are after school. The reason why i think that this would be the best ways is because most after school activities do not need for the kids to pay a big amount of money or any money at all. The kids could also be distracted and wont have to go home thinking what they are going to do next.
