Three Little Words: Chapters 3 and 4

For homework, click here to read chapters three and four of the story "Three Little Words."

In this story, reflect on the readings and think about why Jane was so worried about her son using her husbands razor. Do you think she was being paranoid or was this a reasonable fear?

  1. I do think Jane was being a little paranoid but you can't blame her for trying to protect her son. I do think it was a reasonable fear because she is just trying to protect her son.

  2. Jane was just trying to protect the boy when she took the razor away. She is scared. Her children didn't know about Mick and Jane didn't want them to get HIV in any way. She is being overprotective around the house to protect herself and her children. It is a reasonable fear but she is overdoing it a bit. -Yamilet

  3. I think she was a little paranoid but i think i would be on her side if i was in a situation like that. I will take a lot of care of my children's because i dont want the disease to spread out like that by using a razor, so i think it was a reasonable FEAR...

  4. I think that she was being a little paranoid but at the same time she was trying to save her child from getting the virus. Although, I think that she is a little too worried because she doesnt necessarily need to take everything thats Mick's and put it seperate.

  5. I think that since she had no idea how the virus was transfered she thought that the razor might cut her son and he might get infected as well. She was being paranoid to protect her family which is very much understandable.

  6. I do not think Jane was being paranoid. She had every right to worry about her son. Plus, she was going through so much pressure having to keep this all a secret and not knowing if her or her children were infected. So, no, I do not think she was being paranoid. I just think she was trying to do the best for her and her children.

  7. i agree with Ciara she wasn't being paranoid i would do the same for my children if i didn't know any better. but in one aspect she does have every right to be as overprotective as she was because you wouldn't want your child to get infected by HIV/AIDS...she's just trying to the best for her and her children and trying to prevent the deadly outcome of what might happen

  8. I will be very afraid if I ever see him using his father's razor. It might be very terrifying to see him get cut or injure himself. I would never want the boy to get the AIDS virus or there will be problems. -Hector Cabrera

  9. No why would jane be paranoid. Would' ent you act like that if you were infected by the virus. If you had kids would' ent you be worried if your kids were infected to?
    So no, i dont think she was being paranoid!

  10. There is nothing wrong with being protective; Jane wants her kids to be safe. I agree with ciara i don't think she was paranoid.

  11. Since Jane didnt know how the virus was transfered. There was nothing wrong with being protective ; but she only wants her kids to be safed. I Agree with kiara and ciara i dont think she was being paranoid.

  12. I personally think she was being paranoid but she had a good reason to do it. If she can't trust her own husband i doubt she will trust the virus that he contracted by cheating on her at all. I think she was just trying to protect her son in every way possible. But, yea she waa being very paranoid.

  13. Jane was just being a mother. No she wasn't being parnoid she was just trying to protect her children. The child has no idea about Mick so they don't know how to protect themselves. What if Mick one day cut him himself with that razor i wouldn't want my son to shave with a razor that has tainted blood either ! Jane was just being A GOOD mother.
