There she would endure her pregnancy without much support from her family and after birth the child would be put up for private adoption. The unwed mother would then return home as if nothing ever happened. Often times the family would never speak of it again. In contrast, in more modern times, unwed mothers are more abundantly seen and accepted.
The book follows the story of a young girl named Tita who longs her entire life to marry her lover, Pedro, but can never have him because of her mother's upholding of the family tradition of the youngest daughter not marrying but taking care of her mother until the day she dies. Tita is only able to express herself when she cooks. I enjoyed this book because it taught me a lot about how one’s traditions can affect your life. This book goes against some beliefs that many people have because “Like Water for Chocolate” is a fiction book, it is believed fiction books cannot teach anything useful. But the lessons I learned are applicable to life and have also provided

During the 1950s, Australia’s attitude towards feminism was still quite negative. World War 2 had recently ended and although women contributed to the war effort, they were still expected to return home as housewives. Opportunities for women to be well educated and find success in high level jobs such as becoming a lawyer or a doctor were unlikely, as there was little point in continuing onto further tertiary studies because they would only go on to marry and have children and no longer contribute to the workforce. Staying true to one’s self in the 1950s was extremely difficult, especially if you were a female because society was constantly trying to mould you into something else. Australia’s expectations in the 1950s were that women should get married in their early twenties and devote themselves to the task of looking after the needs of their husband and children.
Race, religious beliefs, or cultural differences should not be the sole reason to prevent an adoption from occurring. If a family meets the necessary criteria and have successfully completed the necessary requirements to receive a child then adoption agencies should allow them to adopt any child they choose. Interracial families will face difficulties but even the average “normal” family will have obstacles they will encounter. The concept that adoption agencies have about providing the best option for the sake of the child needs to include addressing high wait times. The solution could be placing the child with a family of a different race.
Although, when the birth parents examine the disadvantages of open adoption, one main point that is mentioned is that adoptive families might feel obligated to provide additional emotional support to the biological family (American Pregnancy Association 1). Although this could be very difficult for the adoptive family, the adoption should be in the best interest of the child. If the family puts their issues aside, and provides emotional support to the biological family, it will be easier on the adoptee. It is said that the adoptee will be less likely to rebel, and will have a better understanding of why they are in the situation they are in (Rompf 3). If the adoptive family keeps the child’s best interest at heart, the adoptee will see this and have more respect for the adoptive family.
The stream of children looking for homes is also endless and even these days young moms are giving up babies. Adopting a child will offer the kids a family, gives the kid a big brighter future, and helps a family who cannot have one. Adopting a child is beneficial for everyone. There are some parents that feel adoption is an unnatural process. However, if the circumstances are right thus, the adoption process can benefit a child and the new parents in ways neither could have before.
Finally- Transition When the women gives Taylor the baby, Taylor says- Lead in Quote- "If I wanted a baby, I would have stayed in Kentucky" Describe Doodle and brother, and their relationship (pg.44) Wednesday, September 19, 2012 7:57 AM It seems like their relationship involves much love , but the brother can get annoyed how he's incapable of doing many things himself I think the Lady and the Tiger frustrates us because it leaves us wondering and suspicious of what happened at the end. I think the author also refuses to us because she wants us to think and have some mystery and realize of how we really are in trying to visualize the situation and what we might have done. In the story, it talks about mixed emotions and feeling toward the
