wey her father influenced her life, and answer the question
Jimagined that the strangers were filled with admiration for this dignified person, and I prayed with all my
heart that the ugly. pigeon-toed little girl, whose crooked back obliged her to walk with her head held very
much upon one side, would never be pointed out to these visitors as the daughter of this fine man. In order to
lessen the possibility of a connection being made, on these pardcular Sundays I did not walk beside my
father, although this walk was the great event of the week, but attached myself firmy to the side of my Uncle
James Addams, in the hope that I should be mistaken for his child, or at least that I should not remain so
conspicuously unattached that troublesome questions might identify an Ugly Ducting with her imposing
parent
How do Addams's childhood feelings help reveal her eventual choice of vocation as the creator of Hull House?
