The Glass Castle: How The Walls Family Lived Without Welfare

In Aurora Guerrero’s Mosquita y Mari those expectations that have been traditionally set by society are demolished. Even Mari who has very low societal expectations to meet is seen as valuable in the class room even as she is working to help support her family, even though a child working in this novel is seen as being inappropriate but in other works seen as necessary. In works such as Chicana Goes to College, the main female characters are projected to the reader as being less useful than a man and that they should be at home having babies not be going to school to create a future for themselves because society in Chicana Goes to College believes she will end up in that position anyway.

Whenever confronted by a problem, his “hero complex” is the one to dictate his actions. Knowing that he is primary source of dependence for Setsuko after losing their mom, he takes up the responsibility in taking care of her. Seita wants to be a hero for his younger sibling, even if meant disregarding the help of better authority. This is quite evident in the scenes leading up to his departure from the shelter of his aunt’s house. Despite his nationalist view, he doesn’t take upon any responsibility to help the country by finding a job or serving in the fire brigade, which was a trait his aunt despised.

English is of the opinion in her work “What do Grown Children Own their Parents? That there are things “…that children ought to do for their parents, but they do not owe them things.” She is in favor of friendship bonding more than the parental duties because she believes that “…friendship is characterized by mutuality rather than reciprocity: friends offer what they can give and accept what they need…” (English, 1992, p. 758) The major point being made in the objection is that there are unrequested sacrificed made by the friends and these do not even create the debt and friends also have duties which are regardless of whether they have requested them or initiated the given friendship.

In brief, technology can destroy human.

When I was in 8th grade, me and my friends decided to go on the Haunted Hayride. We all got in the tractor which took us to the top of a hill and dropped us off at the start of the maze.
