In Abigail Adams letter to her son(1780) John Quincy Adams who later became president, she concedes in a remorseful yet unapologetic tone that she would not have urged him to go this trip again if it was not in his benefit. Adams didn’t think his “reluctance” was thought out well, she sends him knowing he didn’t want to go and the that there was the untold danger he could face because she knows how important it is for him to go on this voyage. Adams uses logos and foreshadowing to advise her son that his trip was not in vain.

Abigail Adams does not like the new White House because it is unfinished, The City is surrounded by tree’s, and The buildings in the city aren't pleasant.

If you ask someone who their biggest supporter is, they usually answer with “my mother.” Regularly, mothers tend to promote a critical but sincere and encouraging persona when it comes to their child by giving them the support and advice they need to grow as an individual. Similarly, in a letter to her son, Abigail Adams advises him to use his opportunities to his advantage to face his “difficulties” and “calamities” with strength and “great virtues” so that he may “bring honor to his country” and “add justice, fortitude, and every manly virtue” to his character to form one similar to “[a] hero’s and the statesman.” By employing pathos, historical allusions and a sincere tone, Adams reveals her purpose is to convince her son that difficulties in life are meant to be embraced in order to establish a strong and tested foundation of will along with adding to his character. She claims that in doing so, one will receive “wisdom and penetration[,] the fruit of [these] experience[s].”

Abigail is later presented as autocratic and flirtatious. This is apparent when she tells John to ‘Give’ her ‘a word’.

She continues to describe his word as ‘soft’. This implies that Abigail has a flirtatious and provocative nature (who desires attention from

During the Japanese War, Henry is a Chinese American, that goes to an only white school and was forced to work in the kitchen during lunch and clean after school because that was how his scholarship was being paid for. It’s unfair that Henry has to labor to pay for his scholarship when the white kids don’t. He meets a Japanese girl named Keiko and become friends instantly. Henry’s father is not fond of the Japanese but it does not stop Henry from being her friend. Henry’s father does not like the Japanese because of the war which isn’t right but Henry sees past it.

In the book Soledad foreword by Jonathan Jackson,Jr. George Jackson writes a letter to his mother on page 40-42, he writes a letter explaining their relationship. I believe that George Jackson didn't receive the typical relationship of a mother and a son. A relationship between a mother and son should involve trust, love, and kindness. The relationship should be caring, forgiving, protecting, and supportive.There should be teaching and learning from both the mother and the son. I think this because of my experiences with my own mother. My mother and I trust each other and we love each other. My mother is protective, supportive, and she forgives me for anything and everything do. I also think this way because of how a relationship between a mother and son look like in happy and joyful movies.

But I will cut off my hand before I‘ll ever reach for you again. Wipe it out of mind. We never touched, Abby” (Miller Act 1). The Crucible by Arthur Miller is an incredibly complex play depicting the fictional events of the Salem Witch Trials. If one is to begin to dissect the contents of said play, you must look at it from a psychological point of view. Particularly, a view of Freudian psychology might provide insight as to why some characters made certain decisions and carried out the actions they did. Using a Freudian psychological lens to examine The Crucible, readers can take a closer look at the actions of John Proctor and Abigail Williams and form hypotheses as to their deeper motives.
