When she [Joan Risley] returned in 1945 she found it difficult: "I remember sitting on a sofa with a feeling of not belonging. By that time we were really poor. Dad was still ill and unable to work. My family all commented on how I talked different, so I had that strange feeling of not quite belonging yet wanting to be there because they were my family. I soon got used to being with Mum, and she got used to me. But with my siblings it was more difficult. They are my family and I am very fond of them but they never went away like I did, so they don't understand that I have had these two lives." –“Children of the Wartime Evacuation,” Julie Summers What is the best statement of the central idea of this passage? Joan’s relationship with her family changed because of her experiences away. Joan’s birth family found that the way she talked was different from their way of talking. Joan wanted a different life after the war. Joan’s siblings did not understand her.
