The book is the story of Enrique, a Honduran boy whose mother, Lourdes, was abandoned by her children’s father and who made the difficult choice to leave her eight-year-old daughter and five-year old son to come north. Nazario gives us a view inside the most difficult choice a mother can make: whether to abandon her children to the care of relatives in order to be able to provide a better life for him. The powerful economic forces of globalization in the developing world boil down, for Lourdes, to the simple choice of whether she can continue to tell her children to lay on their stomachs, because that way they can fall asleep in spite of their hunger pangs. And yet, Nazario gets us to fully appreciate the human costs of the decision to come North for the family members left behind. While Enrique has shoes and the ability to attend school, which his mother could not have afforded to give him if she had stayed, he feels the constant loneliness for his mother’s love and is shuttled from relative to relative as he begins to act out, drops of school, and turns to glue-sniffing.

Relationships in Citizen Kane Kane’s Parents * The relationships between Charles foster Kane and the characters in the film are based on the relationship Kane shared with his parents * Jim and Mary Kane forfeit their son to Walter Thatcher, a wealthy banker, when the family suddenly comes into wealth. * Kane’s mother appears distant and emotionless towards her son and although we assume she sends her son away to ensure he is raised appropriately * From what we see of Jim Kane, we can tell that he is an alcoholic and has violent tendencies towards his son. Perhaps Charles is sent away in order to protect both himself and his wealth from his irresponsible father. * Kane's mother sends him away when he is only eight years old, and this abrupt separation keeps him from growing past the petulant, needy, aggressive behaviors of a pre-adolescent. * As an adult, Kane has a great deal of wealth and power but no emotional security, and this absence of security arrests his development and fuels his resentment of authority.
As a reader, I connected with all three girls in some personal level because the comparisons of our lifestyles and choices. For example, page 5 through 9, when Adjoua lies and goes to Bintou with the excuse of studying and there is that one person, Albert in this case, that goes and says “I know you are sneaking out to chase boys.” Adjoua has very over-protective parents, her father especially. But I thought it was hypocritical when he accused Koffi of ‘cradle-robbing’ with a younger girl when he himself was doing the same with Bintou, his daughter’s best friend and Koffi’s daughter on pages 23 through 26. I thought Bintou envy’s Adjoua and Aya. Aya for her intelligence, with focus to bigger things and Adjoua for her protective parents who constantly worry about every day and night.

She betrays the love of her husband by cheating on him with Tom, which is evident when Tom says, “I want to see you,” and she agrees, “All right.” “She nodded and moved away from him just as George Wilson emerged with two chairs from his office door,” shows that she further betrayed his trust by planning a meeting with Tom while her husband was out of the room. Early in chapter seven of the novel we are introduced to the third act of betrayal. Nick and Mr. Gatsby had just arrived at the Buchannan residence and sat down with Jordan and Daisy.

The local school board was particularly set against Cooper and her lofty goals for students; they tried to curtail her activities and when she disobeyed their injunctions, they fired her in 1906. Her biographer, Leona Gabel, wrote there was "pressure from Tuskegee to drop
