Answer:

Elenita wishes her father was more honest and straightforward with her.

Explanation:

This wish is exemplified when her father would enlist reasons for not going back to Puerto Rico. The reasons varied from year to year. Elenita learned years later, through her mother's stories that her father, Jorge, was actually ashamed of the fact that he could not provide for them the kind of living standard her mother had had had growing up in a middle-class family in Puerto Rico. She wishes that culturally her communication with him would have been based on honesty instead of having him give excuses such as, "not the right time, not enough money or that he was needed in the U.S. by Mr. Reyes".

THESE MUST BE AT LEAST A PARAGRAPH

1. Fast foods contain an insane amount of calories, lots of fat, and are pretty much high in everything you want your food to be low in like sodium. They have no nutritional value, whatsoever. For example, a McDonald's hamburger contains 250 calories, 469 mg of sodium, and 10 grams of fat. And this is for an everyday burger. A big mac contains 33 grams of fat, 563 calories, and 1,007 grams of sodium! In moderation, such fast food isn't that big of a deal, but having too much fast food you can develop diabetes or heart disease. The excessive amounts of sodium can lead to elevated blood pressure. The fats and trans fats can lead to clogged arteries. Again, I'm not saying eating one big mac can lead to such diseases. Just eat these foods in moderation.

2. A child should get from 1,000-1,800 calories a day (between the ages 2-18). For most children, that's about one big mac. Too many fats and calories can lead to obesity, atheroscerlosis, and clogged arteries.

3. To help children with addiction to fast food, parents can have them d<span>rink water (thirst is often confused with hunger or food cravings), eat more protein, etc. Also, they can start slowly adding healthy aspects into their everyday diets. For example, gummy bears as dessert can be switched with various fruits. Instead of filling your tummy with artificial sugars, you get the natural sugars from fruits. Also, you can do simple things like blotting the oils off pizza with a napkin which cuts down on calories.

I hope this helps:) I spent a REALLY long time on this:)</span>
