Patricia Barry asked this question about Educated:
This book is disgusting to me. I do not understand why an educated and worldly individual would have difficulty understanding the horrible and violent upbringing that she experienced. It is unbelievable to me that she could not understand the violent situation, yet uneducated upbringing she endured. I have completely misunderstood her manner of education in a life in our country, in this country, how is this possible?
Heather Jacobsen Its what she grew up under. It was all she knew until she became an adult. And of course, you still love your parents, your family, no matter what. It…moreIts what she grew up under. It was all she knew until she became an adult. And of course, you still love your parents, your family, no matter what. Its not difficult to understand at all.(less)
