I thought it showed a selfish side of Ella that I really didnā€™t like.

It made me laugh because my mother always said she was meant to be queen. She was actually a hard working single parent. If I was queen of the world- where would I even start. I think I would start with some type of gun control as unpopular as that is in this country. I know every reason that it wonā€™t work- Iā€™ve heard all the arguments. I think you have to start somewhere though.

I didnā€™t put a lot of thought to the comment. I think it was a fun way to say ā€˜if you were able, this is what you would doā€™.

Elise, I totally agree with you! Guns causes so much heart ache. And it has forced our children to grow un feeling unsafe in their own communities. I think every parent wants their kids to be safe. And they are NOT in our country. Maybe the ā€œkings of the worldā€ should do something about that!
