The Yellow Wallpaper was about a women that just gave birth to a child and was not mental stable and had depression, this took place in the 1892. Her husband was a doctor and diagnosed her and believe when he took her to a house and put her in a room that would be a consider a cure to her diagnosed depression stage she was in. Context: Charlotte Perkins Stetson, January 1892, setting was 19th century. Subtext: Depression,mental instability, journal, women rights to choose.
Argumentation: The author did not have any choice in her own life story since that time women's rights did not exist. Women were treated like children, do what they were suppose to and told to her by there spouse. Since she had a husband that was a doctor and was caring for her, he had treatments in place and it seems like she had no decision making for her own health. Narration: I am very lucky that I have not experienced this in my life. Everything I have done up to now has been my decision and no one else's. There have been many influences in my life and some I agree with and some I don't. For instance, when I was pregnant and very young in my life. I was not sure on what my decision would be if I kept the child or give it up for adoption. My mom told me it would be better for me to give it up so my life could move on and not be such a struggle because I was not ready. I knew in my heart I could not do that, it would be very difficult and I don't think I would be able to live with that decision. Obviously my decision was not to and raise my child to best of my ability and have been doing good so far with the help of my mother.

This post provides a clear position about the narrator's life choices. Could she have chosen to leave the situation entirely?
