in her parents about it? (paras 2,9 15, 17 and 19)​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Right now, your child trusts you. You are the source of all good things. She knows if she hurts herself or is hungry or needs information, she can ask you for help.

But how can you make sure your young child grows into someone who will continue to come to you when life gets seriously difficult?

Answer:

. The astounding event that is being referred to is that Matilda had made a glass of water fall all over Miss Trunchbull, using the power of her mind. Matilda didn’t think she could tell her parents because they wouldn’t believe that she could have done this by herself in the first place.
