Decent Essays
To compare my life and Anafghat’s life are similar which is child marry and no opportunities for going back to school as a child hood life. The values behaviors and opportunities are similar to me because in my country if you are marry when you were young and you cannot be going back to school anymore. As you were young if you have a child you will not have an opportunity to going back to school but the different thing is no one told you that you have to marry when you were young. Some of the things that I learn for her life is she fight hard for her life to going back from school. To me American is different country to many other countries’ because if you have child and you can still finish you high school or GED diploma.
