from two stones clapping together. There was no one else around. Em thought that the wind was making the sound, but when she looks outside not a single breeze is in sight. She gets so scared she screams, but no one comes. They say if you listen closely at night you can hear the two stones clapping together and Em screaming.
This story made me feel sad 
However, the purpose of this story is to reveal the cruelty of our world and the protectors who help and protect children
The quote, "Nobody wants to be told what they're doing is wrong" is true. Sometimes, we never accept when we're wrong.
"and you see the terror" represents that nobody cared until something had to happen.
I'm sorry I couldn't get much from these quotes. This topic is a bit tough for me sometimes and I'm just doing my best to help.
