Right now you are probably touched by the loving families of Zero and Stanley, but at this same moment the opposite is happening in the suburbs of New York in a small cottage. X-Ray is the one in this small cottage. He has no family and lives all alone. The government provides for all of his needs. He loves the view but it just doesn’t seem right.
He has lived here since he was just six. His parents were fighting in the army when they got killed in Iraq. That is why he would always hang back while everyone else was having fun. Moping around is just what he does.
“I wish I had my parents with me like everyone else,” said X-Ray. Staring at the pictures of him and his family. “I have always had all the food, water, and shelter I need, but

“Do you think someone will adopt me?” asked Rex. “Maybe,” the A.G. said very unsure. They drove silently the whole way there. When they finally reached the destination Rex spoke. “I hope someone will love and adopt me soon.”
He walked with a smile on his face. He had never seen so many nice children his age all together. The lady who ran the orphanage walked up to Rex and greeted him with a warm, welcoming smile. “Welcome to Happy Hands Orphanage. The place of happiness. Hi, my name is Ms. Joy.” “ Hi, my name is Rex. I have a quick question, do a lot of people get taken into other people’s homes?” asked Rex. “A lot of people do, but you might not think that because so many people come in here that you wouldn’t expect many people to get taken in,” replied Ms. Joy.
“Where will I be staying?” asked Rex very excited to get unpacked. “You will be staying in section D. With 6 other orphans.” replied Ms. Joy with the same smile as Stanley. He was thinking of his friends in Group D that had gone on their own now. Rex just wished he could see them again. When he got to his room the other orphans looked nothing like Stanley and the other campers that were in Group D back at Green

“We have someone new to Happy Hands Orphanage,” said Ms.Joy when Rex walked in. “His name is Rex,” “Like a T-Rex,” said another orphan. “Just like a dinosaur,” said the same orphan. “My name is Sam. At least I have a normal name,” “Rex is a perfectly fine name,” said Ms.Joy. “ My real name is Winifred. When I was younger my friends teased me because of my name. Do you want to be those friends?” Ms.Joy said very serious.
“Look at the time, it is time for dinner,” Sam said changing the subject. “Not yet. We still have fifteen minutes,” Ms. Joy replied knowing how anxious he was. “We need to explain the expectations and rules for the orphanage,” explained Ms.Joy. “Then we’ll eat?” asked Sam very anxiously. “Yes,then we’ll eat,” replied Ms.Joy almost bursting out laughing.
After explaining all the rules, Ms.Joy walked alongside Rex until they got to the dining room. “This is where we eat,” said Ms.Joy very proud of the beautiful space. “I hope you enjoy the warm home cooked meal that is provided. I bet it is a step up from Green Lake food,” she said, and then winked. “Wait, how do you know about Camp Green Lake?” asked Rex startled at the comment. “I know everything about our orphans here at Happy Hands Orphanage,” replied Ms.Joy in a blissful
Sadie asked he mother with a curious look on her face. “We are perfectly safe Sadie, The French and Indian war was a thing of the past. The men in the town are rioting about something.

In this research essay, it will be about how the research on dementia has helped me understand the short story "Babysitting Helen". Have you ever with Alzheimer's, and wonder what It is? The research on dementia helped me to broaden my understanding of the short story "Babysitting Helen". It taught me that Helen's odd behavior, her memory loss, and the stress on caregivers is a normal part of living with dementia. In the short story "Babysitting Helen" Helen was laughing at things that aren't funny at all and was so amazed by the rabbit in the commercial with the drums.
I did most of my research online. My first piece of information came from a website based on Children 's Rights. This site gave me information about average ages in foster care, institutions, and group homes. This sight was very informal about the types of living foster kids can go through. The next site I visited was about What Foster Care is.
Who knew that something so beautiful could be so difficult? Adoption led me to a season of surrender, hurting, and healing, but most importantly, a place of grace and perception. Soon after my fourteenth birthday, my family invited a young boy who had been struggling in his original, adopted home to come live with us. Adopted from Ethiopia at the age of 10, Elias arrived in Texas, only to be sent to my family in Kentucky one year later.

The children were in the back of the U-Haul during one of their many moving trips and they almost fell out because of the carelessness of their parents. Due to the fact that the kids fell out, there was much chaos because there was “little communication.” (Cherry). “The driver must have signaled Mom and Dad because the U-Haul slowed to a stop.” (50) Rex was full of anger and frustration towards his children even though the whole situation was his and Rosemary’s fault.
This story creates an emotional appeal to the fellow parents that are reading this passage. Parents emotionally connect to stories involving children. Children are extremely powerful for making people feel. The reality finally starts to set
You know, born in a slum. Mother dead since he was nine. He lived for a year and a half in an orphanage when his father was serving a jail term for forgery. That's not a very happy beginning. He's a wild, angry kid, and that's all he's ever been.
He doesn’t fit into their society and has no way of knowing how to fit in. He has no companion, except his mom, and was prone to anger and indiscriminate violence.
Mattie could not say this goodbye, and the orphanage did not have anymore room. This teaches the reader that sometimes you do not
I never thought to see a child again. I didn’t know that would happen.” (Pg 172) This quote shows that the boy’s innocence was very precious and rare. The innocence and compassion of helping people in this world has been lost and seems like it will be lost forever.
“Ummmm, no,” she answered back. I turned a few steps to the left and smiled at my cousin. “So are you going to finish that turkey sandwich,” I mischievously smiled. “I don’t think so, I’m really full,” he said back like he had just eaten a whole turkey. I rushed over to him and took his sandwich.
