The food is horrific, the sleeping conditions are terrible, and the place is very unsanitary. The nuns don’t show any respect for the children. For example, when Jennings wasn’t in the correct spot in line, Sister Frances took him and dragged him to his chair. “She grabbed me by the hair and dragged me to chair twenty-seven. (…)” Even though all these circumstances can make Jennings think negatively, he has held strong and maintained a positive attitude to the children and some nuns.
And the only place left for Mary Alice is her not-so-ladylike grandma, in her not-so-sleepy Illinois town. She doesn’t adjust very well because, like all schools there are bullies, popular kids, and just-plain-weird kids. Except she knows it is not Chicago, but she finds that hard to get used to. But Grandma took care of Mary Alice’s bullying problem by tricking the bully. Mary Alice was also very unhappy when Grandma told her about buttering Bootsie’s paws.

Comparison of Texts Draft Statement: ‘Monsters are not born into the world, they are created in it’. The significance of surroundings is portrayed through the use of imagery; it is affected by their attitudes formed by their own idiosyncratic epochs such as sublimity and postmodernism. Disparity in emotional control and behavior distinguishes a monster from a human. Both the novel “Frankenstein” by Mary Shelley and film “Blade Runner” by Ridley Scott, contrasts this idea of nature verses nurture and detachment.

Pickton didn't do particularly well in school, and was made fun of by the other children because of his poor hygiene and the fact that he frequently smelled like hog manure. Robert had developed a fear of showers because his mother insisted on taking baths only. Pictkon always wore his trademark knee-high gum boots because of all the mud, pig manure and slaughtering operations on the farm. Robert’s mother looked out for him in particular, as she knew he had a harder time that her other offspring. As he grew older, Pickton frequently skipped school to stay home on the farm.
She is one of the children who live in the neighborhood in which the beginning of the story takes place. Sylvia is very descriptive in a negative way about most of the people around her by saying things like, “Back in the day when everyone was old and stupid or young and foolish” and “hated the way we did the winos who cluttered up our parks and pissed on our handball walls and stank up our hallways and stars so you couldn’t halfway play hide-and-seek without a goddamn gas mask.” (Bambara p.537) Sylvia and her friend Sugar do not seem to have much respect or admiration for anyone, including themselves and this is evident by the choices they make in behavior and thoughts of theft. The trip that Miss Moore takes the children of the block on this time is to a toy store downtown on Fifth Avenue called F.A.O. Schwarz. This was not a place that any of the kids had ever been or were even likely to visit because of their economic status.
In the novel Boo was never accepted by society for his past actions and for this declared a social outcast to humanity. The reputation the people of Maycomb possessed towards Boo was all negative rumors that people believed such as what he ate “dined on raw squirrels and any cat he could catch” (Lee, 13) which were one of the many rumors.

The outcome of this ruined Boo’s life and disconnected him for the life outside his house. As Boo had made mistakes in his life as any other person in society has, he was never forgiven.
Whatta they think I am, anyways?” (Page 43). She’s not allowed to talk to anyone because everybody thinks she’s a tart. Everyone thought she was bad, and that’s how she was discriminated. Candy is discriminated against by his age. He has a very old dog, and the boys at the farm want to shoot it.
