               I have never lost jewellery ,or being expelled from school for hitting the principal. But I understand that people who go through these experiences. People who lose jewellery with sentimental value tend to get aggressive towards the person who took it away. This would explain why someone would hit the school principal this way. Afterwards Marjane's mother said that she feels worried that her child would be raped and then executed. This is a natural horror for any parent.

               The fact that it was forbidden to use jewellery and other similar items in school is comparable to how the Taliban enforce their radical view of the sharia law in the same way the fundamentalists did in Iran. The scene where Marji points out that her teacher is telling a lie about political prisoners is comparable to good moments we have all had in which we correct the teacher. In the next pages it is shown how her family worries that her attitudes might get her executed in the future. This can be compared to situations in which your parents tll you not to talk about a specific subject.

            When Marji´s parents decide she must go to Austria is comparable to how many people are moving out of Venezuela for security reasons. Also you can see the act that Marji and her parents are nervous and sad. Her parents because they are sending their child away, and Marji because she is going to a place where she does not really know anyone. And none of them know if they will ever see each other again. This is comparable to situations in which a parent has to give his child to an adoption agency for many different reasons.They are all scared and sad because they do not know if they will ever see each other again.
