How was Emily Dickinson's life has a child?

Answer 1

Well, Emily had an older brother named Austin, and a younger sister named Lavinia. She was the middle child being about a year younger than her brother, and three years older than her sister. She was a very intelligent child who was rather shy. Apparently she never had a very close relationship to her mother as her mother was sometimes a little hard to get close to. It seemed as though Emilys' father favored her more than her sister Lavinia and her mother favored Lavinia more. Both parents probably favored Austin more considering he was a boy, and that is how it usually worked back then. Even though Emily was without a doubt very good at learning and had a passion for education and reading, they expected her brother to achieve greatness, not her. Emilys' father Edward encouraged his daughters to get a good education though sending them to good schools. The children were raised in a Puritan family with the same religious beliefes. Emily was confused about her faith and stated she was not religious like them but probably felt the pressure to be. Her childhood was probably a descent one with ups and downs like any. She loved to learn to play the piano and sang as well. Emily also loved nature and all it's creatures. As a teenager her father bought her a dog that she named Carlo. She was very attached to the dog and often wrote about him in letters. She appeared to be a pretty normal child aside from being very shy and quite. Her Aunt said Emily was a very well behaved child who was little trouble.
