I still don't know what the ingredients for a happy adulthood would be. Still having trouble figuring it out. It depends a lot in someones childhood because if something happens to that person growing up that person can be traumatized for the rest of their life; may not be able to do different things they enjoy. For example, if a young girl is scared of dogs when she is small growing up she can still be terrified of dogs even small ones. So childhood depends a lot on someone's adulthood.

What I predict will happen with Fantine, Javert, and Jean Valjean is they will confront each other. Fantine may die because with just talking or moving alot she can get worse and de. Jean Valjean would talk to her and keep her from making to much movemont or talking so she would have more time but wont be able to because of Javert. Javert will arrest Jean Valjean and take hm to prison but will talk to Fantine and the sister to tell them the truth about M. Madeline who si  Jean Valjean.

Victor Hugo doesnt use humor in the book because...

Jean Valjean did not put his past behind him because when Javert talked to M. Madeline and told him they caught "Jean Valjean" and they were going to have him in prison for life. He relived his past and thought about giving himself up becuase they had caught an nnocent man. Then he thinks about Fantine and Cosette, how he needs to get them together before Fantine dies. He struggles in decing to go for Cosette for Fantine or tog go and turn himself in to save an inncoent man

My first impression of Javert was that he was a good man not cruel just by his name yet when I read the chapter about him I was let down. He is both a paragon of justice and tool because he doesn't think twice about justice yet he is cruel about a situation not knowing what happened or both sides of a story. He's different from the characters we've read because the other characters have been caring, generous and nice. Javert is the opposite, he could have gone through bad stuff but he would need to be more of a person then to treat everyone different.

The decisions someone makes is entirely on them because it's what that person knows. If someone is in a situation where there are two parts in a story they should consider both maybe the decision will affect more things then just making the decision. It can be a conclusion but it can affect much more than just deciding the conclusion of the problem.

today's notes was about Fantine's daughter cossette and how she was treated, wrote some things from the book too. Cossette was treated badly by the family who took her in she saw how happy the couples daughter's were and she wondered if she could be like that she had been already doing chores; sweeping the house. etc. in the book it gives a perspective on how Cossette was and the mother had no idea what she could have gone through; she just read the letter and suspected everything to be fine. 

These pages talk about how cosette grows when she's left with the family. It describes what she goes through living with that family but she doesn't get to be like the other girls she lives with, and she's really young. It also talks about what else happens that time of year, that is important . Maybe the characters will meet in the book, sometime near the future.
