"Although I'm only fourteen, I know quite well what I want, I know who is right and who is wrong, I have my own ideas and principles, and although it may sound pretty mad from an adolescent, I feel more of a person than a child, I feel quite independent of anyone."
What do you think Anne means? Does this quote apply to your own life and experiences?

She's her own person and she know's what she wants out of life. Yes, I know what I want out of life.
ReplyDeleteShe feels that she can make her own decisions without people telling her what to do.
ReplyDeleteI think it means she knows what's right about the war like that JEWS are treated unfairly, and Hitler should not kill all of the JEWS, Yes I have my own opinions, I also feel more independent now, and I feel like I know what life is worth.
ReplyDeleteShe is independent and knows what she wants to do with her life and yes it does becauser I want to do stuff in my life and get things accomplish.
ReplyDeleteI think that in a short few years that she has been in hiding has caused her to mentaly mature faster. So because of the war she had to think of what she thinks is right and wrong. Also yes, i have made up my principles and what I think is right and wrong.
ReplyDeleteI saw how she had already decided to become a writer when she was older. I know what I want to be when I'm older, but unlike Anne, I don't "practice" for that. I thought it was cool how she didn't care wheather she published anything, that she knewall she wanted to do was write and that what she did! (:
ReplyDeleteAnne knew that what Hitler was doing was wrong, but she knew she didn't have a say in what was happening. In this paragraph she basically tells you that she is mature enough to understand her situation, but she had made that clear already.
ReplyDeleteShe doesn't want people fussung at her whenever she does what she wants to do. Yes i feel like this most of the time.
ReplyDeleteThat she knows what she is talking about so she doesnt want to still be treated like a child who doesn't know anything. I agree with her on that.
ReplyDeleteThat even though she may be young, she believes that she knows what she wants her life to be like. I agree with that.
ReplyDeleteI think that Anne means that even though she is just a teenager she knows and is feeling just as much as anyone else with her. She is her own self and that she knows what she is going to do with her life. I think that I somewhat relate to this because I know what I want to do with my life in somewhat of a way and I know that the only thing stopping me is me.
ReplyDeleteit's cool how good of writer she is at the age of 14, and her thoughts of possibly being able to publish her journal, that's cool how she actually got to! I'm glad she partially made it to her goal.
ReplyDeleteI think she is saying that since she is older she needs more independance. Yes, now that most everyone in our grade is a teenager everyone needs more independance.
ReplyDeleteshe feels as if she can make her own decisions and be responsible
ReplyDeleteAnne feels that even though she is young that she is independent and knows what she wants to do, Her quote does apply to my life, but i have not planned ahead as much as she has
ReplyDeleteto me i think shes saying that she's older now, not a little kid, and that she's gaining more independence than she had. And yes, we might start to have these feelings too.
ReplyDeleteI do no what i want out of life. I think she knew what was going on and she knew what she loved so she used that to keep her mind of the situation
ReplyDeleteOK I think that Anne feels that she is independent and can determine between right and wrong. She knows who she is and what her limits are. I dont know if this relates to my life, because this is wisdom beyond my years.
ReplyDeleteshe is very mature for her age and is able to decide things without anyone else's help. and yes i think it does apply to my life, because when i want something i work hard to get it.
ReplyDeleteshe has her own idea of whats giong on and this should apply to everyone
ReplyDeleteI think we all kind of know what Anne's talking about. Anne was forced to grow up at a very young age, and though it was unfair, she had to mature very quickly and recognize the danger they were in. I can relate to Anne because I already have my own hopes and dreams, and my own opinion of right and wrong.
ReplyDeleteI think we can all relate. I think that she is very tierd of being told what to do . When to do IT ,and the way IT should be done. Anne seems frustrated. Even though she is very young, her situation has put her in a spot of an adolacents point of view. She had to mature at a young age. Her attude should apply to everyone being confident, and yourself is very important.
ReplyDeleteAnne is just a fourteen year old girl, who wants to just grow up and be treated like an adult. All teenagers can relate to this.
ReplyDeleteShe is a teenager and dosent want to be treated like a child anymore. She understands what is going on. And i agreee with her
ReplyDeleteI think that she means that she is her own and that she knows what she is doing. Yesd i do know what i want out of life.
ReplyDeleteI think Anne means that she is only a regualar teenager, but she understands what's going on in her life. She also knows what she wants out of life. I think she wants to have a very fun and fulfilling life. I think we can all relate to this quote because we all have things that we want in life and that we don't want to be treated like a child and when to do things and and the right way to do it. I don't think that we will ever experinece the pain and suffering that she went through, but we might be able to relate to her feelings.
ReplyDeleteon this you can tell that anne knows whats going on and i mature enough to understand it. she feels like she can make her own decisions and be responsible
ReplyDeleteI feel like writing something would be a waste of time because it would just be all of these comments paraphrased so, I agree that yes, she was independent and had her own ideals in life
ReplyDeleteHaving to go through a time like that, Anne matured a lot. I think she means that although she's young, she knows what she wants out of life, she has her aspirations set for her. And yes it does apply to my life, but I don't exactly know what I want out of life though.
ReplyDeleteI think Anne is aware of the jeopardy of her situation, so she believes she has to mature. Therfore she is more grown and independent in her choices and actions. I beleieve that I and many others can relate to this beacause, if your mature or not all teenagers beleive that they can make there own choices, and don't want others to make it for them.
ReplyDeleteAnne is much more mature than us because she has gone through harder things. She is more independant. She believes that she can make her own decisions just like all of us
ReplyDeleteI think that Anne feels that she is independant enough that she can make decisions when and hoe she wants to. I kind of feel like that sometimes as well.
ReplyDeleteAnne just wanted to be a regular girl even though she had to grow up faster than everyone else because of the situation there are going through.
ReplyDeleteit means she understands what happens in life. even if it happens to other people she is independant about it.
ReplyDeleteit tells what she wants more than anything in the world
ReplyDeleteI think if I had ever met Anne we would have lots in common. We both feel older than we actually are. I don't know how to put it but I think she feels like a mini-adult :) with adult knowledge and enough of that to make her own grown-up opinions :).
ReplyDeleteThis quote shows her gaining independence. Rather than people showing her what to do and what's right and wrong, she figures these out by herself- "like and independent person"
ReplyDeleteShe means that she doesn't want her parents and other people bossing her around and telling her what to do, she can make her own desscions. I very much relate to what she is saying.
ReplyDeleteI think she acts older then she really is because shes been in hiding with adults so she is more mature so she doesnt like it when they treat her like a child.
ReplyDeleteShe feels she knows what is best for herself and no one should talk her out of it. I, on the other hand, have no idea what my life will be and in what direction it will turn.>
