Daisy also, “tears about alone with her unmistakably low foreigners” (40) which shows how little taste and poise she has, she lacks the most basic ability to choose suitable companions. Winterbourne on the other hand, is rumored to be “extremely devoted to a lady who lived there [in Geneva]—a foreign lady, a person older than himself”(4). However, when this relationship is spoken of, he is not criticized for it, and it is simply said that he is “studying” (4). While both Winterbourne and Daisy make poor choices in companions; she is seen as choosing much more unwisely than he is. Winterbourne’s woman might be inappropriately older than he but she is still a member of the appropriate class.
They each dealt with confrontations in different ways. Julian’s mother was nice to the little black children, but totally ignored the parents. Mrs. Turpin had no choice but to be nice to the black people. If she was mean or rude to them, they might not go back to her fields to work. Even though the end of these two stories seemed to be similar, they were actually very different.
A white mother didn’t want her daughter to be roomed with a black girl. Roberta does not seem to understand that Twyla shows concern for being put into the same room as Roberta, while Roberta does not seem to notice any hatred towards her. Another clue of each girl’s race is the depiction of each of their mothers. Twyla’s mother, Mary, wore tight green pants and a ratty fur jacket with the pocket linings so ripped she had to pull to get her hands out of them. Roberta s mom was very different.
Dealing with Cyle My mom was 36 years old when she found out she was pregnant. It was a surprise to the family because she had made up her mind that she wasn’t having any more children. She already had me, a 7 year old at the time and a 10 year old son. She knew that having another child would put her and her unborn child at risk for many complications. Throughout most of her pregnancy, she had terrible pains on her right side pelvic area and heavy menstrual cycles.
Morgause gave birth to her sons and that is pretty much the only way she has a partial right to the title of a mother, because in any other form she is definitely not a mother. Morgause shows to be a woman full of vanity and is very conceited. This would be an example of her narcissism: “It was not that Morgause courted invisibility-indeed, she would have detested it, because she was beautiful” (White 218). Just by saying she “detested” being invisible “because she was beautiful” shows just how full of herself she is. The way she treats her children is un-motherly and selfish, for example when “she had not noticed that her children’s clothes were ruined: had not even scolded them about that” (White 263).
The more you read the more your views about a particular topic change. How do you know what you are reading is actually accurate? Reading is not the evil but reading unacceptable material is an evil.

The reason Uhmma acts this way with her kids is because she wants them not to be stressed and weak.Uhmma said in the beginning of the when she was talking to Young Ju, “Look at my rough hands. Do you think I always had hands like these? Do you want to end up like this?”(18). Meaning she doesnt want her to have that kind of life style. While this book progessed so did Uhmma, i feel that she new that Apa wasnt good but until the end when he turned on his own daughter she finally new that its
Joan Didion’s “in keeping a notebook”, has shown that she writes to suppress bad memories by her expressing the difference between her childhood and he daughters. Although there is not a direct reason as to why Didion writes s, one could imply that because Didion did not have a “perfect” childhood, she writes in order to not remember the bad memories. Didion states that her daughter would never write like her because she is “singularly blessed and accepting child, delighted with life exactly as life presents itself to her” (55). This quote presents the idea that Didion has a much different childhood than her daughter. Although she does not talk about how her childhood was, she explains how her daughters’ good life does not compel her to write things down like she has since she was 5 years old.
This cant be answered unless you know the events Janie had to overcome during her childhood. The movie does a great job of showing Janie's disgust for Logan Killicks. Although Janie has absolutely no interest in Logan, she ends up marrying him. There was no love in their relationship, the only reason Janie's nanny made her marry was because she was scared, scared that she would die and Janie would be left alone with nothing. Nanny wanted to feel like Janie was stable, so she could rest in peace.
You don’t think…“ then Mama’s last reply was “Now I ain’t saying what I think. But I ain’t never been wrong ‘bout a woman neither.” This is when Mama and Benetha thought that Ruth was pregnant, at the beginning of Act 1, Scene 2.
