Enders Game Blog Post #1

I really enjoyed the first couple chapters of Ender's Game. The life that they live really interests me about only having two kids and how the third was looked down upon. I thought it was interesting how they had signed Ender away from the time he was conceived. It seemed really unfair to the kids that have to go through this program. I think that the teachers in the book know that Ender is going to be someone that is going to make a big impact on their school. Especially when Ender gets called out for being the smartest and best. Even though the kids think that he knows everything and pick on him, the others will come to understand how Ender works and he really isn't set out to hurt anyone. In these chapters there was a lot of xenophobia. When it came to the school and who was picked xenophobia seemed to be a big impact. They didn't want anyone who couldn't hold their ground. It also seems that the take all the thirds in the family. Also Ender seems so different from his family and they know it. Ender is told that his presence is a disrupting to his family and how they life. I think that could be possible but they will miss him and see how much he has learned when they finally get to see him after all his training.
