E G Entry 4

What is the climax of this novel? what happens? how do the events of this novel make you feel?

The climax of the book was when Ender felt betrayed and used by adults. He played a game in front of many adults, which he thought was his final test in Command School but it was an actual battle of the third invasion of buggers.
This quote once again reminded me that the adults are evil. In the story, the adults use children, who are supposed to be playing outside with their friends, for their needs and desires.Also today, many kids still suffer from homework and evil teachers in school.

Do you think adults are using us children(teenagers) in reality? In the book you have read, the adults have trained talented teenagers to make them fight the war against buggers(aliens). Do you think that was a right thing for them to do, even though it was their plan to win in the war? In a certain way they are evil, especially in the novel. However, I don't think they wanted to send their own children into the war to fight, a place where they can actually die, don't you think? I bet it was their only solution~
Kids suffering from school these days... yeah.... well... maybe...lolz

I agree with you that adults are evil. Yes, they are evil, heh heh. Look at your English teacher, isn't she evil too? HAHA!!

Yes, they never told Ender anything about those battles against buggers nor about the games. They just selected some smart kids from the world, trained them with too many games, causing the kids to get weary, and even brought them into the real battlefield, without telling them that it is the real battle. I think the adults are both evil and cruel. So, I recommend you not to trust in the adults around you. They may have tricked you before, and they are going to in the future. HAHAHAHAHA!!

haha! I like the "evil teachers" part. I agree with you on how adults sometimes use children, but I don't think that this happens that often. I like your post! <3
