The story “Raymond’s Run” is about a girl named Squeaky who is responsible for caring for her brother, Raymond. We learn that Ra
ymond has a mental disability and is sometimes a challenge to care for. Think of a time when you have been responsible for caring for someone else. Your experience could be babysitting for a neighbor’s child, helping to care for a pet, or helping an elderly relative. If you had not had this experience, think about a time someone close to you had this responsibility; or, imagine what being in this situation would be like. What lessons did you (or could you) learn from this experience? Your response should be about 150 words
Once I hit the age eleven I've had to watch over my older sister who has a disability. I would "babysit" her when my mom was busy, or outside, and I would have to make sure she was okay every 10 to 15 minutes. She is 26 years old and has a mind of a 4-7-year-old, which means I have to get her food, turn the lights on and off, plugging things in for her. Which of course I do not mind. She does get irritated with me at times when I try to help her since she is very independent. When I was eleven I only had to watch her for a short period of time, but as I got older the time expanded, now it mostly depends on what my mom is doing or if my brother is home. My situation is very similar to Squeaky and her brother Raymond.
