It creates a happiness and builds something to work towards. However, some parents chase after goals in which they just are not suited for. For instance, in “Death Of A Salesman“, Willy, the father of Biff and Happy, creates a false sense of a positive outlook on searching for a career and what it takes by saying that, “The man who makes an appearance in the business world, the man who creates personal interest, is the man who gets ahead.” (Miller Line 625-627). In fact, these ideas are the exact opposite of what it takes to be successful in the business world. Willy thinks that if he were to tell the truth to his kids, they wouldn’t respect him for not being as successful as he claims to be.
Drill team gave me the knowledge that grades in high school do play an important role in life and I knew that if I put enough heart into it I would succeed. My coaches made an impact on me because they differentiated me from other and made me realize that I made a huge difference to the team. They gave me the opportunity to showcase what I had, which made me sense I was notable and helped to raise my confidence. I have never been able to adjust to situations as well as others but the confidence I gained from drill team experiences helped to change that. My confidence plays a big role in the person I am today.
Lastly, the fathers expectations of two characters does not align with the mothers, yet in one piece of literature the mother expected exactly what the father wished. The feeling of not conforming to societal and parental expectations and not being appreciated condemns youth into believing they are worthless and negatively affects their outlook on life. “Brother Dear” and “A Cap for Steve” both deal with the raw issue of parents not accepting children’s ambitions in life. The two main characters have different goals yet both goals resembled the life that they wish to live at that time. Greg, from the short story “Brother Dear,” does not desire to attend university and become a man of business yet that is all his father wants for him.
What is the source of conflict between Willy and the boys? The conflict between Wily and the boys is that he wants them to be successful and they were not striving their best to do so. Wily was not really there for his boys because he was always on the read. Wily built them up but really didn’t teach them anything. 7.
“No one knows what he can do until he tries” One of the most valuable life lessons in “No one knows what he can do until he tries.” When it came to school, I never tried my hardest. Whenever I didn’t understand something, I would become discouraged and give up. My absence of effort showed in my grades. However, in high school, I began to learn that if you truly give something your all, you can succeed. I always received good grades in elementary school.
Showing commitment to a child by coming to every game they have helps them to feel happy and want to be committed following their dreams of being a part of a sport they would like doing. Motivation and commitment are a part of the word support. With support, parents need to maintain it by supplying these two words to existence and provide them in their lives. Parent’s emotions get out of control when they are big aficionados who want their kids to be perfectionists. They are young and don’t need so much pressure on them to be on top and the best.
Discipline will not work if parents do not have a good relationship with their child This highlights how spanking a child will weaken the respect that is needed between child and parent. In turn, the child does not know that he/she did anything wrong because the child has no respect for the parent any more. These examples show how spanking does not teach the child to be good, but it changes the way that children approach
I really like the idea of the author that there are two kinds of mind-set: fixed mind-set and growth mind-set. However, I don’t agree that it is only educators’ fault that some kids have fixed mind-set. I think that it all starts in the family, way before school. Parents think their kids are special and tell them that they can achieve everything they want. But parents often forget to mention that the key to success is hard work.
The Flaws in a Father and Son Relationship: A Study of Willy Loman Felix Naranjo AP Literature & Composition, Period 1 Professor Lerma May 19, 2013 Abstract A father expectation for their sons is for them to have a bright future. They expect for them to be a better person then what they are today. A successful father expects for their son to be successful as well. If he runs as a salesman or owns a company, then his son must follow the footsteps to keep the business running. All a father wants is the best for their sons; however, some fathers tend to push their sons into something they might not be interested too.
Rob has no interest in those kind of sports or any sports at all, he is just doing them just to please his dad. As for Rob's dad Mr. Willison, he shouldn't have forced his son to do all these sports that he is not interested in and pressuring him. Mr. Willison's obsession of Rob doing all these things is making Rob tempting himself to lie about things, and its normal for a teenager to lie about things just to please their parents. The dominant reading is that Mr. Willison
