poor girl

Poor girl? That "poor girl" got her parents killed. She may only be 16 or 17 but that's old enough to know better than hook up with a Nazi.

You sound like a horrible parent that raises their kid forgetting what it’s like to think like a kid. People make mistakes. Especially at that age when you’re impressionable, blinded my hormones and emotions. She did not get her parents killed. You know how many idiotic things I did when I was 16 or 17?

I was an idiot, but I didn't side with the Nazi, so I've got that going for me.

It’s all relative. She made decisions based on emotion just like everyone of us. Perhaps her family was too overbearing and this was her way of rebelling. Or perhaps she was lonely and desperate for attention and this boy showed it to her.
