Reading Jane Eyre again after 30+ years

It is like a new book I'd forgotten, you can always tell when you are reading a classic because the feelings and issues are not time-bound. Jane goes through the trials of life in an orphanage but in it she experiences all the feelings we all can remember from childhood. How much power adults have over kids! There is still alot going on today that needs correcting in the way children are treated. Age discrimination and abuse still occur. I'm still only a third of the way through the book but it is having a profound effect on me, making me more aware of kids as people who are dependent.
