Mary Garlic

My name is Mary garlic. I live in marshall, Louisiana. I am 97 years old. My time of when I was aslave was tragical. I passed through many bad stuff, but I made it out. Now Im here to talk about it. I was seperated from my parents when I was 5 years old, Erik had raped my mom, and then killed her. Then he killed my dad.....As I had said Erik Anderson before, he became my owner, after what he did to my parents. He was the meanest, well that I could think of. I got raped when I was 16 in 1891, I was in my room with my friend, and Erik was runk. He first started grabing my friend but I defended her, and instead I was the one hurt, but I couln't do any thing about it. He took me to this room, hitting me at the same time...then that nightmare happened. But wait, that didn't saty like that, one day when he was sleeping I put a poisoness snake on his bed, and he got bitten. He never found out it was me. 5 years later I escaped with my friend, he was drunk and had fallen asleep, so we made it out. After tat I went to live far away where their was no slavery..

Don’t you ever ask yourself how come we all have different values?

This is what I think:

We get our values and the way of thinking by how we live at home. If my parents teach me to be clean I’ll be clean too. If they teach me to like education, I’ll like education. If they take you to mass every Sunday morning, you will get use to it and will just get a habit of it and keep going to mass. If the parents don’t have any real values, the kid will have to do it by him self. That’s what I think………….

As always all of my friends have different opinions. Some say that the parents don’t have to do anything with this. If the kid wants to have a whole different life they can do it. They could have their own values. They can all get their friends advise…..good advice. They can think about having a good education, or care about money, or even government. But everybody has different values.

My family has both mine, and friends’ opinion. It all depends in the person. But that person also needs help from someone, and could get it mostly from how the parents think. This is how I think they get certain values in their lives.

So what you THINK?????????
