In "Pictures of Hollis Woods", the mustard lady is continuously moving Hollis from home to home due to her weak decisions in families. While…

I believe that Ethan is a Slow-to-warm-up babies, because he is difficult at first but he become easier over time. Like for example; at daycare he start crying when I leave, but then he usually quits down quickly. And he is shy with new people and situation but he usually deal with his emotions.

In the article the author refers to the internet is a bad place for teenagers and that it’s very dangerous. The author also says that if your child does not know the dangerous of the internet they shouldn’t be going on it.…
