What is the disagreement in the passage from we are seven?

Answer 1

The man thinks the girl has five siblings because two of the original seven have died; the girl maintains that she has seven siblings.

Answer 2

The disagreement in the passage from "We Are Seven" by William Wordsworth revolves around the definition of what it means to be alive. The speaker argues that two of the siblings are dead, while the little girl insists that they are still alive, as she includes them in the count of her siblings. This disagreement highlights the girl's innocent and simplistic view of life and death, contrasting with the speaker's more logical and detached perspective.
