Mrs. Fontana's early years. -Francesca

The first two days we met with Mrs. Fontana. She is a very nice lady, and told us a little bit about her life, one of the things that I found very interesting was how protective her parents were of her. We asked her what she did when she was a teenager with her friends and if she went out or went clubbing and she told us that her parents wouldn't let her. I asked her if she ever tried sneaking out of the house and she said she wasn't even tempted to. She wasn't interested in partying or dancing or going out with her friends, she worked a lot with her father on the farm.

It's very interesting to see how parents were so strict at those times, and I wonder what it would be like for us now. If our parents were like that it would be very frustrating. I still can't understand why she wouldn't sneak out like Mrs. Yolanda, her parents didn't hear her but still she preferred staying at home and going to bed early since she had to work.
It was very strange hearing about what teenagers did back then and their different life styles, I hope to find out more about the "fun" that they had!
