  4. I don't think that this selection is fair to everyone because you really shouldn't question authority. I've been taught that you should never question authority even if you think they're wrong. There's a thing called respect and I don't think questioning authority is fair for those parents that are trying to teach their kids that questioning authority is a bad thing. There might be some parents like Ilona's parents that would be fine with this selection but not all parents would be. Obviously, anyone that has a position of authority would naturally not like this selection, sometimes because it interferes with their job, or simply becuase they like to be the boss, but that doesn't mean that Ilona didn't make any good points in this autobiography.

  5. i think that they should have done what they had done. they got there message out in every way that they could.music,art you name it."do you think a grade 8 student can make a difference in the world?" i said yes because no matter how young you are you can come up with many ides to change the world, put them into action and you can make a change. this person in the text did some thing good to change the world. she also did every thing she could

  8. In this selection i think it is fair to everyone to have a say in what they belive in. The author of this article stuck to what she belives in. She went farther than what some people might do. I now she went farther than what i ever will do,well maybe i will try to do as much as her. What i'm saying is that everyone has a huge say in what they belive in and they should go for the gold.

  9. No it's not fair to everyone. People who like authority or are authority might not like this idea or selection.

  11. In my opinion this text in not fare to everyone because they are only showing to prospective of Ilona and not what the other people see from what the protesters and Ilona. Some people that might object to Ilona’s points would be the government and other people that are involved in the government, maybe Ilona’s friend’s parents because Ilona would try to tell them what is right and what she is going against and her friends would be on her side too. For example, when she would wear tee shirts that commanded, questioning authority and at the young age of 14 she was all ready a self-declared activist, and how do you think that that would affect her friends?
