Eleanor+Roosevelt+3rd

=My person is Eleanor Roosevelt. She was known as the "ugly dukling." Eleanor Roosevelt examplified perseverance by overcoming a rough childhood, descrimenation from others, and phycical limitations.=

==Eleanor Roosevelt overcame a rough childhood. Eleanor always felt rejected and naglected by her mother. Eleanors mother called her "granny" in public and her father was a alcoholic. Eleanors dad was her primary source of affection. But do to his drinking problem many promises he made were broke. When Eleanor was 8 her mom died and her dad was hospitallized do to his drinking problem. So Eleanor and her brothers were sent to live with their grand mother. Eleanors grand mother taught her how to hide her feelings until she was alone.==

==Eleanor Roosevelt then overcame descrimenation from others. People often called Eleanor a "ugly dukling" or "granny." Her mom usually called her granny othes called her the "ugly dukling." Do to the descrimenation Eleanor was always afraid of something weather it was the dark orthe car, it was always something. In order to compensate her unhomly looks and feelings she became a womens rights activist.== ==Eleanor Roosevelt also overcame phycical limitations. Eleanor was born with a birth defect. As a result she had no love from her mother and was made fun of in public. She did get married. Eleanor married a distant cusin Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who later became president.==

That is how Eleanor Roosevelt persevered.
