The story starts off at my work, where I realized I wanted to “see” the world through my coworker’s eyes. My coworker’s parents are very conservative, and I had never realized until now that her parents and my parents are indeed, very different. She has to live with a long list of rules over her head, while I have a good amount of freedom and can do whatever I please.

The worst thing was not being able to do anything to help ease her suffering.”

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). Clearly, many parents have problems with the larger themes and messages in Crank, and YA literature in general, because of its mature and explicit content. 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
