i think slavery is wrong even being the owner. It made me feel very guilty and like I was a bad person. At sometimes it was nice because you didn't have to do work and you could have snacks and other things like that while all of your work was being done. It wasn't a great thing because the slaves were the ones getting smarter, not you.

i thought it was really bad even though i was not a slave because i saw some people go mining where you can die really easy and if you did something wrong then you would be punished

i think slavery is mean because the eletes were very rude to the slaves they made them do all there work and not talk out of turn or they would be beaten.

I think slavery was unfair even from being a master. Some of the requests were unreasonable, and something that we could it our selfs. The punishments were unfair as well.

Today, I was an Elite, but I felt really bad making my slave do all my work. I guess she'll turn the tables on me tomorrow. By the the way, the snacks were awesome! I liked the French bread and the goat cheese! I think that slavery should not have existed in Ancient Rome, but it was fun being the master!

I think it was not far to be the one how gets all the power and full control over slaves.

Hi it's Anna Barr and today I was a slave. I thought slavery was horrible because you can't be yourself and have to work all the time. I can't wait until I can be the master though.



Love, Anna

Hey it s aliza i think thet slavery is bad even though i was a elite. I think that because if i happened to be a slave i know it wouldnt be pleasant because u have to work and do their chores when they should be the ones doing the work because its theirs. Even though i was a elite it was cool because i didnt have to do the work, but still seeing them do the work and run around and do are work. But over all it was so fun being a elite. Thats what i think about slavery.

Slavery is the worst. It might be nice if your the owner but it can be mean. I was a slave and had a okay owner but it still was not fun. I still and always will be against slavery.

Brooke Caron said...

I think slavery is really unfair the rich people get most of the credit just because they're rich! I think it should have been banned back then. the masters mostly have the say with where to send the slaves!

i think that slavery is not far because there is no reason that people should all be treated the same. because it is dissomnting to others to see people in the streets of rome being beat on.

Catie B. said...

I do not think that slavery is ok. Slavery should ether be banished or there should be a law that says that ownners have to be nice to their slaves!!!

i think there shouldn't be slaves because its not fair to the slaves but it was fun to be the owner because u didn't have to do anything

Syd said...

slavery may be fun for whoever isnt a slave, but slavery is cruel and should not be encouraged!!!!!

morgan P3 said...

Roman slavery should not be around

David Nagy said...

I think roman slavey is wrong because if you do something wrong you get punished.

Maggie Donohue said...

i dont think slavery should be around because the owners would become lazy and everyone is equal anyways. so if there was slavery the world would be hectic.

Mikayla R said...

My owner was nice and helped me with the work I needed to do. I still do not think slavery is right though.

Matt Espo said...

I feel Roman slavery is off and on. Because it can matter how nice someone is.

Joshua B. said...

My master didn't care when i hit my head so that was unfair so i think slavery should not have happened.

Hey Mr.C this is kaitilyn jsut wanted to say hi this is my newly made blog hehe!

Emily the Strange said...

life from the slave's point of view is very different. First, you feel like everything you do is not good enough and that you are not in control of yourself. Some of the things they asked of you were unreasonable and ruthless.
Freed-slave, Emily

maggie s said...

Life from a slaves point of view is unfair. The hard work was done with no reward. They thought of you as a piece of property. That they could make you do whatever they wanted. After being a master I know how it feels. Some of the things were unreasonable or strange.
