The two fathers in The Taming of the Shrew and A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Batista and Egeus, are two characters who cause the pursuits of their daughters in both of their respected plays.

Role parent’s play in a child’s life is very prolific. After reading the article “Why My Mother Wants Me Dead” by Sabatina James. I realized that other countries have it in their culture to raise their children in the matter that they are accustom to. In my opinion, this is a phenomenal way to raise your child as long as the child is inclined, but if the child is not inclined on following their parents’ culture and traditional values a different approach should be taken in consideration. I’m not one for letting a child completely choose his or her destiny, but I would direct my child in a successful path.

Autonomy of Marriage Growing up in an affluent and conservative family, my parents have always instructed me to find a mate with a matching social status. However, my family never restricted my brother and sister to marry who they love, which unfortunately either of them has done, provided they find their mates to be fitting their personalities and family status. During the classroom discussion on this issue, although I had some frictions with my original views, my central claim—parents should not control children’s marriage, but children themselves should exercise discretion. My parents’ view has also shaped my view on this issue.

Since Kristina’s mother and stepfather raise her baby, she is free to go about her life as a carefree teenager, and continues to snort, smoke, and inject crank, even though she has a newborn at home, which does not teach readers that she is forced to deal with the consequences of her actions (Hopkins, 536-537).

Adults want to protect their child(ren) from the dangers of the outside world for as long as possible and novels like Crank threaten to subvert that desire, and expose adolescents to the dark, unpleasant, and disturbing side of life beyond soccer practice, dance class, and student council meetings. Because the entire novel, beginning with the first page and ending with the last, centers on Kristina’s drug use, and the havoc that unleashes after her addiction

Hence, Dicey feels that as the oldest, she should be the only one with extra responsibility. She wants to always be there for her siblings, and does not understand that they maturing and should be able to make their own choices. Additionally, when Dicey’s other
