Answers with Explanations:
1. How are Lourdes and Enrique's departures from Honduras similar? How are they different?
Lourdes and Enrique's departures from Honduras are similar in a way that they are both searching for something. Lourdes was looking for a better job, so she can give her children a better life while Enrique was looking for his mother, the only person he thinks can understand him
The only difference in their departures is that Lourdes legally migrated to the U.S.A. for work while Enrique went there illegally. It was a dangerous endeavor for Enrique, but he was able to manage although he needed to weather many threats.
2. What is your opinion on learning from a parent's life experiences? Do you think that we learn from our parents or that we, as children, make the same mistakes?
I believe that we, as children, <em>learn from a parent's life experiences.</em> This gives us the chance to change and not commit the same mistakes. Although it's true that parents are the first teachers of children at home, observing their situation (especially if it's bad or negative) gives children a warning sign of not repeating the same mistakes.
Because you never know who you are talking to. You want people to think the best of you. Say you are accused of pushing a kid at recess. You have never lied to your teacher (your teacher knows this) and so they ask you, "did you push Billy" You reply with "No" she is more likely to believe you because you were honest an left a good impression. Another reason why its good to have a good impression is if you are being interviewed for a job. You want the employer to like you and want to hire you, so you should always put your best foot forward.
