Parenting In Frankenstein

He questions why he is the only one alone, while other beings can have a mate. Frankenstein is showing signs of poor parenting. He doesn’t own up to his responsibility to alleviate the monster’s loneliness. The monster wants help, but gets denied by his own creator. Frankenstein fails to properly nurture his creation’s development. Consequently, the monster developed to show his hatred to other humans. The creature or monster was a successful experiment created by Frankenstein. Repulsed by his own owner, the monster had to fend for himself. Nature was the only thing that supported him. “After his initial rejections by people, the creature turns to nature for comfort. Reading history, literature, and the classics offer him education...Forging

In the meantime, the monster came across another cottage in the forest. He observed the inhabitants and got to know more about the people living there. By the last name of De Lacy, he cherished them from afar and considered them to be his family. Mr. De Lacey, the father of the family, was found out to be blind.

If you treat someone badly, they will become the person you made them to be. The monster was bullied by the people just for the way he looks and later made him a bully to the humans. “The creature’s more heinous actions, for all intents and purposes, may make him a true monster, but it is important to note that he is not irretrievably so.
