Assignment 5

Each character in My Sister's Keeper seems trapped in their own kind of loneliness.  Choose two characters and discuss their loneliness.  Why are they so lonely?  What does it remind you of?  How can they cure it?

  1. Jesse and Anna, They are pretty much neglected by their parents. It reminds me that parents will do anything to help their child in a time of need. Anna and Jesse need to stick together and help each other out.

  2. Jesse and Anna seem to be the two characters that are very lonely. They both come second to Kate. Everything is ALWAYS about Kate. Their mom doesn't even realize that she does this until someone brings it to her attention, but still she doesn't care because Kate is her one and only. Jesse's and Kate's situation reminds me of a personal event. Jesse does a lot of things to get attention and one of my friends used to do that too except for in a few different ways. Anna is just standing up for what she believes in. She has the right to make her own choices especially when if comes to her body. Jesse and Anna are in the same boat and I believe that if they stick together they can get through anything.

  3. Jesse is lonely but i don't think he care about it though bc he could be doing his own thing. Anna could do the same thing go off and hang out with people you don't know.

  4. Jesse and Anna are both pretty lonely. They always come second to Kate. The only time Anna's parents pay attention to her is when she needs to give up something. Jesse just kind of get ignored all around. Their parents only care about Kate and what she needs and it is not right. I bet if they asked who their parents favorite is it would be Kate. I mean don't get me wrong Kate does need special attention but not all the attention.

  5. Anna is lonely because her parents are always caring for her sister. she could just try and forget about them. it doesnt really remind me of anything. i think jesse is lonely also but he can handle it. hes does drugs and smokes and stuff so that probobly makes he feel better.

  7. Jesse and Anna are lonely. They have to always stop whatever they are doing for kate. The only time that Anna gets attention is when they want Anna to give Kate blood or organs. Jesse is basically left all alone because nobody pays attention to him. He does what he wants and gets in trouble alot. Their parents have 2 other kids. Not just Kate.

  8. The two characters that are not getting any attention are Jesse and Anna. they are both living in the shadow of Kate. All of their parents attention goes to Kate and the other two are left out. The only time they get any attention is when they are hurt or they cause some trouble to get their attention.

  9. Jesse and Anna are both neglected. Kate is more important then them. They are only important when they are needed. Jesse gets in trouble with the law to get attention. Then Anna gets a lawyer. Maybe they could just help each other.

  10. i think the first one is brian because hes always working and him and his wife cant even go out on a date without his wife worrying about somethings going to happen to kate and i think Jesse because hes always felt like an outsider because of kate has all the attention and he tries to get attention by breaking the law
