Miss Temple is a very caring woman, she is the exact opposite of Brocklehurst and pretty much all of the other adults in the book so far, except Bessie. I feel bad for Jane that she always has to deal with such difficult people, it reminds me of this show that used to be on television called, "The Best Years." The main Character Samantha Best became an foster child at the age of seven and was toss from foster home to foster home until she was 18, which at that age the government kicks you out of foster care. She learned to fend for herself. The girl on television focused on her education and got out of her struggles and into and ivy league college.  Jane is a younger is like an outdated younger version of her. In Chapter Six Helen tells Jane she and everyone should do what God does and forgive and love everyone, even people who are not very kind to them. Helen likes how Jane can maintain such an ability to work hard on everything while Helen is more of a day dreamer. I kind with Helen's philosophy, I personally am a very forgiving person and let people walk all over me. My personal philosophy is now I will forgive everyone, but because I forgave them does not mean I need to continue to maintain a steady friendship and help them with everything, because in the end I will end up getting used. I think Brocklehurst is the worst educator ever, putting a student on display for humiliation is not going to make them want to learn more, if anything it is going to make them want to not do anything. Labeling Jane as a careless liar was not right because he didn't know her well enough to do so, first impressions are not everything.
