    what do the mysterious voices mean when they say ender can become a great military leader or a great monster?

    if Graff is one of the mysterious voices, who is the other one?

    How do the other kids in Ender's first group feel about him being transfered to a different group?

    Why do the older kids do so many inappropriate things even though they are 10-12 and aren't mature enough to use a insult other then fart face and little fart.

    answer to "if graff is one of the mysterious voices, who is the other one?"...chapter 8 first paragraph, [Major Anderson]

    answer to callie knops question..the other guys are rude to ender because they're jealous. if a way younger kid in our school beat you at something you were "the best at" it would probably be a blow to your ego making you resent them

    answer to "what do the mysterious voices mean when they say ender can become a great military leader or a great monster"..i think of this kinda like hitler. sure he was a horrible monster but at the same time he was great at getting people to do what he wanted, so if he used that power for good he would have been a great leader. somebody so smart has the chance to go both ways

    Thoughout the book ender keeps talking about how he doesnt want to be like his brother, peter. but it seems like more and more that he is becoming like him. does that mean he really wants to be like him and not admit it??

    answer to Zach Brinkman's question- "Why do the older kids do so many inappropriate things even though they are 10-12 and arent mature enough to use a insult other then fart face, and little fart." .. Even though they are 10-12 they think they are so much older and more mature just because they are in battle school they think that can do whatever they want just because they are smarter than the aveage kid at there age.

    Answer to Chandika Silva's question- " What do the mysterious voices mean when they say ender can become a great military leader or a great monster." I think they mean if they are pushing him to much and making him be to volient he will be like that with everything and not use his brain first. But if Ender can relize what he is becoming he will stop volience to only when he needs too.

  • michael kimmel

    which of the Battle Schools' armies is truly the right one for Ender

  • Shelby Raphael

    When Ender first got to Battle School and everyone was mean to him, do you think he felt as if there were many different Peters around him?

    5/11/2009 6:23:17 PM
  • Shelby Raphael

    answer to Ashlyn Parker: i think he had the job because he just worked his way up. Like Ender is of Dragon now.

    Why did Ender have to be mean/mess with the new guy?

    5/11/2009 9:35:56 PM
  • Kelsey Martin

    Answer to Jon Canfield: " Why did Ender have to be mean/mess with the new guy?
    - The reason i think he is being mean is because the new guy (bean) reminds him of himself being so small but really smart, and he wants to treat him like Graff treated him in the beginning.

  • Kelsey Martin

    Who is Rose???

    5/13/2009 5:25:55 PM
  • Kelsey Martin

    Answer to Shelbys Question " When Ender first got to Battle School and everyone was mean to him, do you think he felt as if there were many different Peters around him"
    - Yes i do think that. Because back on earth everyone was mean to him, so he probably thought it was going to be the same if he didnt show them how powerful he actually is.

    Answer to Michael Kimmel " Which of the battle schools army is truly the right one for ender"
    - i think being commander is the best possible thing for him, it allows him to be in control.

    Why does neither Bonzo or Ender get in trouble when they fight in the bathroom??

    5/13/2009 6:49:39 PM
  • Kelsey Martin

    If the " teachers " want to follow him and know what he's thinking why didnt they just keep the moniter in the back of his neck??

    5/13/2009 6:53:58 PM
  • Lindsey Watson

    answer to shelbys question..... i dont think he felt like he was surrounded by peters because i think peter treats ender differently than how the older boys would treat him. it it makes it totally different knowing that peter is enders brother so they actually have a relationship.

    if enders army is at the top why are they moving some of the people in his group to another army

    5/13/2009 9:17:03 PM
  • Shelby Raphael

    How do they know the buggers want to harm them? What if the buggers control would be good for the human race? Are we just so centered on ourselves being in control that everything/anything else seems wrong?

    5/14/2009 5:29:07 PM
  • Shelby Raphael

    Why do they send Enders army into battle so much? they never have before. Do they want Ender out of number 1 in the standings?

    5/14/2009 5:29:44 PM
  • Shelby Raphael

    Does Ender have any thought or feeling that he actually killed the boys he fought?

    5/14/2009 5:30:10 PM
  • Kelsey Martin

    Why did they want ender to go home before he goes to commander school??

    5/14/2009 9:35:53 PM
  • Kelsey Martin

    Answer to Ashlyns question" How do people choose toon leaders " i think they pick the toon leaders by the stats and whatever the commander feels is right.
