This problem is still very apparent today. Parents will run out on their families, and do so much as to commit suicide because they don’t live up to their own expectations, as well as society’s expectations. Also, when children take a different turn from their parents’ wishes for their lives, it develops conflict between parent and child. In “Fences”, Troy exhibits sort of the same behavior towards his children and life itself. Originally, Troy was built to be a baseball player.

Repetition of three words, 'I,I,I' and 'saw,saw,saw' could be to represent nervousness, to show blanche's anxious jumpy nature, makes the audience question why she is so damaged. It has something to do with death. Also the repetition of certain words in topics of conversation, such as funeral, the use of those constantly being repeated and emphasised. Almost childish "trying to wind her sister up" shows a childish side to her, slightly mean side. Repeats Stella's name, could be as not to loose her trip on reality or loose her sanity, amongst her painful recollections from belle reve.
Even though he was probably in some state of depression from not receiving a lot of appreciation for being in the war, Krebs was going against his Christian morals by lying all the time to make him seem more important and like someone he was not. Also in the passage, his mother asks him if he loves her, and he responds by saying, “No.” (Hemmingway 191) Seeing his mom crying, he changes his mind and begs his mother to believe that he loves her. Krebs had not wanted to get a job and did not want to make an effort to get a job, but after hurting his mother, when his mother asked him to go get a job, Harold changes his ways and goes and gets a job in Kansas
John’s character in the beginning of the story may seem kind of suspicious of how he doesn’t want anyone to know of how he cheated on his wife, and that at first he would do anything just so that no one would find out. As the story goes on you start to feel that John’s character is changing. You can see this because at first he didn’t want anyone to know, and now he feels really guilty and wants to confess to his wife, so that Elizabeth doesn’t have to suffer for what he has done. John then was with a girl Mary Warren at the court and was also trying to help put Abigail to shame for lying, but then Mary Warren is getting accused for being a witch and turns on John saying “You’re a Devil’s man. I’ll not hang with you!

Due to her domineering presence this meant that any chance that child A’s mother had of being able to fulfil her role as the primary carer was undermined and must have caused great stress and tension within the family unit. This is picked up on by the child who will often display negative behaviour just before a home visit in the hope that care staff will cancel it. This would remove the burden of saying she doesn’t want to go herself which she feels would be like rejecting her family. This finally leads me to the grandfather who would have been the only male to have been involved in child A’s development but he appears to have taken a very minor role and chose to stay in the background letting his domineering wife pull the family strings. This meant again that child A had no dominant male role model in her life and reinforced the grandmother’s matriarchal role.
Similarly, in the poem Wild Boy of the Road the parental hesitation is visible, “His mother is worrying about him… His mother is wishing her boy would come home.” The usage of the words worrying, boy and come home demonstrate the same feeling as in the story. Knowing that the child may struggle with different life issues alone is a difficult feeling for parents to contain. Furthermore, when a child is no longer surrounded by parental support and encouragement parents sense that their role has been reduced and
It was heartbreaking, but intention of this lie was done in love. Lies arise from love. When a daughter choses not to tell her parents about her broken marriage, she knows that her parents are going to worry and even get sick. She loves her parents, lying was a better option than telling truth. Furthermore a lie is about simply being selfish.
