I remember answering this question for you before when you had so many questions on "A Raisin in the Sun."

I know I've asked before, but no one yet has helped me to understand this question. I think the answer should be "You didn't say nothing bad to him, did you?", but responses came back as it should be "yes Lena" and I disagree. Will someone please talk me through it so that I understand why I'm wrong? That's all I'm asking.

Could someone please take a look at the above post? It would be greatly appreciated and I really need help understanding this question especially. Thank you in advance.

I thought I explained why I thought it would be Yes, Lena. Lena was talking about Walter growing as a person, and I think that Ruth would agree with that.
