Thoughts about Jamestown.

The settlers of Jamestown were mostly fathers who left their families behind. Their plan was to send for the family once they had made Jamestown a settlement. How would you feel if you were one of the children left behind in England and your father went to Jamestown knowing that you might not see him for at least a year. Describe your feelings knowing that you might not see your father for a year. Write down "Anonymous" and your mailbox number after you have made your comment and then post.

I would be sad if my dad left to a different country and he said '' He would probably not come back''. I would miss him playing board games and him being my assistant coach. It would be DEVASTATING!!!!!

I would hate it if my dad left. And knowing I might not get to see him again. I love my dad so much,he help me get through life. I would love to go to a new world, but the thought of not being able to see my dad for years would be sad. 8

I think it would be terrible if my father left because I won't get to play golf with him. I would be very, very, very, very, very sad if I couldn't see my father for a whole year.

I feel enormously sad when I do not see my dad for a day! I can't imagine not seeing my dad for a year. I would faint.

I would feel terrible if my father left me for a year but I would feel even worse if he never came back. I miss my dad when he leaves us for Kentucky to score AP exams for 9 days. I just can't imagine him leaving us for a year. 10

If I could never see my dad ever again I would cry in my room every day. When I wouldn't be able to see him, it would feel a little weird because I'm so used to seeing him every single day.

I think it would be so awful to have my dad go away for a year or more over the ocean to America. At least in these days you get to talk to your mom or dad when they go away.
