She acts childish when dealing with problems. Although Calvin Jarrett works the hardest to keep the Jarrett family together, his communication skills lack many important techniques. He often plays the helpless story when dealing with Beth and Conrad’s abnormal relationship. He feels like too much has happened between the two and that there is nothing he can do about it, thus practicing withdrawing. Occasionally, he acts violently by attacking others.
But over time, as he starts to reconnect with his brother, he realizes that his situation is not as one-dimensional as he thought.

Elwin Leper Lepellier started off as a quiet and reserved introvert, but what he went through during his teenage years left an everlasting scar he will have to live with for the rest of his days.

In The Crucible, each character wanted to be respected, but due to gossip and the situations in the community, their dream fell through. In The Great Gatsby, Jay Gatsby’s only goal was to get Daisy. His goal was denied though due to the fact he could not control his natural habits and idea that he was new money.

Keeping all this in mind, as a reader, people should now caution themselves when it comes to dreaming.

The fact that his parent were there for his physically, but not mentally had a great effect on him. According to the movie and the book “Into The Wild”, I perceived that the major catalyst for Chris to leave was his parents.
