Walls began to realize that her parent’s decisions weren’t the best for her family, and she began to have mixed feelings for what she needed to do. ‘“Mom, you have to leave Dad”, I said’.
Because his loyalty to his father is so strong, he continues to mourn his father even though his uncle and his mother have already persuaded the court as well as the kingdom to embrace the new reign. Another example in which Hamlet demonstrates his loyalty to his father is when he vows to carry out or fulfill the wishes of the ghost of his father. By promising to avenge his father and kill his uncle, he sacrifices his reputation, sanity and
John always returned to her, no matter how harsh the barriers in his way were, proving that he put her before his own safety. However when John returned to his wife after enduring a horrible snowstorm, he found his wife in bed with another man, which not only left him heartbroken, but was a factor in his death. In conclusion, John is more deserving of empathy than Ann because even though John provided for her and showed extreme amounts of loyalty towards her, he caught his wife cheating on him which not only broke his heart, but eventually led to his
This shows the concern they had for their son and his safety. Plus, they did not know if they would ever see him again. All in all, Ender’s parents did, in fact, love him very much. On the contrary, there was his older brother Peter. This child was, without a doubt, a sick and demented young boy.
