Dionne Quintuplets Research Paper
Dionne Quintuplets The Dionne Quintuplets were born from a single egg in 1934. From the day they were born, not one of them were able to lead a normal life. Their birth was interrupted by a gate crasher and from then on their life was turned upside down. The parents who lived in a very little house with not a lot of money, were convinced that their children would be better off if they were able to live under the supervision of highly trained doctors and nurses, but in reality they became a freak show, which the government made millions of dollars off of. As the first quintuplets to survive, the children were always on tour, playing in variety shows, movies, and constantly in the public's eye. Cecile, Marie, Yvonne,

    “If you commit the crime, you are guilty”(Rush Limbaugh). Even though not all crimes are reported to the police, crime rates have fallen since the early 1990’s. For example, the country of Honduras has the average highest murder rate at about 90 people per 100,000 people. The criminals that commit the crime are most likely going to lie to you. They may make up stories and pretend it was something else. Queenie Keithley is guilty because she left the country club 10 minutes early, she was in an argument with her husband, Joe, and the glass in Joe’s hand was not broken after he “fell” down the stairs.…

    Jeannette was cooking her own hotdogs at the age of three. While cooking hotdogs for herself, her pink dress catches on fire and is hospitalized for six weeks. Jeannette only being three years old at the time of the accident does not let it rule her life. After being smuggled out of the hospital by her father, she returns to playing with fire. Jeannette was taught to take care of herself at a very young age. She was taught how to cook for herself and to shoot a gun by herself at a very young age. Her parents believed that if you don’t beck-and-call on their child’s every whine or cry, it will teach them to grow up to be tough. This is the problem I find most interesting when looking at Jeannette’s childhood.…
