Dear Anita,

I stay quiet with the adults a lot, and go play with my cousins.  because we have fun playing. I don’t really say much to the older people, i don’t know why maybe because my mom always says “what we say in the house is secret between us, and don’t tell anybody.” and she says “when they ask you questions that are personal, don’t give information away.”

we are supposed to not let them know stuff about our life, because they have jealousy and they may try to ruin things.
