1. Why was Parvana's mother so against Parvana digging up bones? What specific arguments did the family make for Parvana to continue digging?

2. Why have Parvana and Nooria stopped fighting?

3. Why do the Taliban make such a big show out of punishing thieves?

4. If Shauzia leaves Afghanistan there will be no one left to take care of her family. If you were in her situation would you make the same choice as her? Why or why not.

5. Parvana's family could have left Afghanistan when the Taliban first took over. Why do you think they chose to stay?

1. Parvanas mother was so against Parvana digging up bones because she was scared she might get hurt or the Taliban will catch her. and also maybe the spirits. Maybe Parvanas mother might think she will get curst because for doing that to the dead.

2.Parvana and Nopria stoped fighting because they knew they had to take care of the family and that fight is just going to destroy the family. They know they have to work together to save the family.

3. The Taliban made a big show big because they want to show they have power and control over the people and if they dont listen to them they will be punished. Also to protect their things.

4. I think yes and no because she helped the family alot and so did Parvana and together they helped the family good but if she leaves Parvana is still there but then has to do all the work. No i would not make the same choice because i will help my family until i know they are safe and heathy.

5. I think they did not leave because they had allot of kids to take care of and also maybe they thought, We are not going to leave our home just because someone comes and tells us too.
