Week 6 Blog 1

1. He's not allowed to become close to people because Graff wants Ender to be self dependent and not soley rely on others. Ironically Graff expects him to lead and be cooperative which in turn requires trust and a bond. He thinks that Ender will slack off and that he won't be as much of a great soldier if he depends on others.

2.They give Ender an army to see how effectively he can lead others and to give him a feel for what he's destined to do one day. Ender is 10 now, they really do think he's some kind of prodigy.

3. Ender gave Bean special treatment, making him seem better than the rest of the army. Graff had done the same to Ender when they were on the bus with the launchies. Ever since that first day, Ender's had to earn anything good that came to him. By doing this to bean, he made made everyone jealous of little bean. So, he had to work hard and reach his potentially to prove to everyone and himself that he was the best.
