I personally think that Sharon M. Draper wrote the book Forged by Fire to help us understand the life of abused children and to show us that there are people that are being abused like Gerald and Angel in the united states. The book Forged by Fire has many lessons we can learn from, Gerald protects his sister and mom from Jordan he even takes the hits meant for angel from Jordan, he soothes angel and protects her from most things around her and keeps her healthy and happy. Gerald is the protector of his family and we can learn from this to help us protect our families and and stick up to any problems that are hurting anyone in our family, even outside our family. Gerald also sticks up to what he believes and does not allow Jordan to control his life by abusing him. He sticks up to Jordan, stops him from hurting Angel. Gerald also will not allow Jordan to mess him up and tell him what to do, if he does not like what Jordan tells him to do he does not listen and does what he believes is right. We too should stick up to what we believe and stop obstacles like abuse from controlling our lives, we should keep going on no matter what someone says about you or what happened in your life.
