I do agree with Anne that people are all good at heart. I think this because no one can be completely bad. We are all born innocent, it's the choices we make from then on that make people think we are good or bad people. But we all have the potential to be good. For example, in the musical //Wicked// Glinda says "Are people born wicked? Or do they have wickedness thrust upon them?" when talking about the wicked witch//.// It turned out she was a good person that was forced to be bad after what she went through.

If I was free after all that time I would do so many things. I would go to the movies, and get ice cream, and go to New York City and everything else I love to do. If Anne was never discovered I think she would save up all her money then go to Paris, since that was her dream. Since in the play she told Mr. and Mrs. Van Daan she wanted to go to Paris and study music and such. She might also get a cat since she loved Peter’s cat and she was so upset when she had to leave her cat behind.

==** Stereotype means to me that people make up lies to attract attention to specific types of people. For example some people think all Asians like rice and can’t drive. I have been stereotyped before because some people say that I have black people hops. I don’t really care that I was called that but it is offensive to some people out in the world. I don’t support stereotypes because they are wrong and can hurt people in many ways. **==

 * These statements show that Mr. Frank thinks for the best of the family and thinks that they will be fine and won’t get captured. They lost faith in hiding and think they will be caught soon. Everyone would get fed up with each other when they are all pent up with each other in this small annex. I would start to go insane and start getting annoyed with everyone in the annex. Having friends because I would see them every day and get annoyed overtime. **

To me, stereotype means you assume something about someone before you know them. Like assuming someone’s is mean because they have red hair. Or a teacher thinking someone’s a great student because their older sibling was good. I have been stereotyped before and it felt terrible. Since I’m adopted a lot of people assume my birthparents rejected me or that my adoptive parents are mean to me. Even though I know these things aren’t true, it really hurts when people assume things like that because of TV shows or movies. I know how being stereotyped feels, so I try to avoid being stereotypical. But I have stereotyped other people before, and I feel bad about it now. My one friend is blonde, and in 5th grade whenever she was confused or didn’t understand something I’d say she was a dumb blonde and I think it made her feel bad so I stopped.

These statements say that Mr. Frank is a caring and optimistic man who like to make others happy. Even though all this bad stuff is happening he looks on the bright side and says how they’re alive and safe. The behavior of the other characters in this stressful time indicates who they really are. Like how Mr. and Mrs. Van Daan get worked up and angry and only really care about being safe themselves. A lot of problems would arise from living with my family like this. My brother and I get in fights constantly and that wouldn’t be good if we had to be silent all day. We would probably be loud and get caught.

== I would go find out what happened after the war and see what changed over time. I would see who won the war and what are they doing to the surviving Jews. I would go back to my old house and see what is still there that is mine. I would want to move to a different country in case something like this happens again. Finally, I will stay with my family and say how sorry I was for treating them in the annex. That is what I would do after I was free. ==

==** I agree with Anne because everyone has a good side to them. They were pent up with each other for two years, so they would get sick of each other. An example from my life help me agree because on rainy days I’m stuck inside with my family, so I get annoyed when I have to stay with them the whole time. The time I am with them though I am happy most of the time. Another example is at Cooperstown when I was with my baseball team for a baseball tournament. We were all kept together at a cabin near the baseball fields. We never started to dislike each other because we were having a fun time in the cabin when we didn’t have games. That is why I agree with Anne. **==
