Textual Evidence: A few days after Mom and Dad brought me home, I cooked myself some hot dogs. I was hungry, Mom was at work on a painting, and no one else was there to fix them for me.

“Good for you,” Mom said when she saw me cooking. “You’ve got to get right back in the saddle. You can’t live in fear of something as basic as fire.”

Compare or Contrast (Highlight one)

Explanation: Jeannette is only three years old, and she was just released from the hospital for burning herself by cooking hot dogs. Her mother should be protecting her from her previous mistake, but instead, she tells her not to fear something as basic as a fire. Fire is extremely dangerous and should be feared! The mother should be cooking for her children, they are too young to have to cook for themselves.
