He is proud of her and shows it to the public, he is protective and he is loyal to her. This quote conveys “my child is yet a stranger in the world, she hath not seen change of fourteen years; Let two more summers wither in their pride, ere we may think her ripe to be bride.” This quote shows that he respects her and shows that he loves her and he tells Paris that she is too young to marry him. Later he changes his mind and wants her to marry Paris. But when Juliet refuses to marry Paris he then immediately grows angry as the head of the family he doesn’t like to be challenged. This quote suggests “Hang thee, young baggage, and disobedient wretch!
His honest personality is first witnessed when he expresses some of his true feelings and affection toward his wife inside their humble home. Two quotes found early in Act Two further illustrate this point. “I mean to please you Elizabeth” (p. 50) he later goes on to say, “ I think you’re sad again. Are you?” (p. 51) These two quotes taken best exemplify Proctor’s loving emotions toward his wife Elizabeth. Also, John Proctor is surprisingly sensitive and thoughtful.

Edna Pontellier, often reflects on her role of mother-of-two who is married to a well-off and often traveling brokerage-business husband Leonce Pontellier. The community views Leonce as the ideal husband, for Leonce he adores and provides for wife and children, he is quite consistently concerned about the welfare and happiness of his household. Yet Edna does not look at Leonce as her choice of husband, she says their marriage was accidental, that as she was growing up there are particular men that came around her that she would have wished to take her hand. Leonce is disciplined, insistent and low-toned, often dissatisfied about Edna's attention to the children and other household issues, more so because he is often away on business and Edna
Matt loves his little sister Kate; they used to be really close. They always play together and talk to each other when they were young. Matt wants to share the experiences that Kate has been through but Kate did not understand. Kate was escaping from the real world and she believed that Matt was having a terrible life.

Edna is there vacationing with her husband, Leonce Pontellier , and her children. At first she is a bit stand offish with people, not used to their open ways. After meeting Robert, a young Creole man, Edna starts to loosen up. Edna and Robert become good friends and do just about everything together. Because it is an accepted practice for an older married woman and a younger man to be friends, Edna’s husband sees nothing strange about this.
While leading the reader on to believe that Edie is going to end up with Chris Watters in the end or at some point in her life, and given the ominous title of the story itself, Munro instead saves Edie’s encounter with her future husband until the very end of the story. In this way Munro was able to use both dramatic and situational irony effectively. For the better part of the relationship with each other there is a sense of attraction between the main character of Edie and that of the pilot Chris Watters, with their sneaky encounters and the seductive behavior that he exhibits around her there is nothing left to assume but that they will end up with one another by the end of the story. The mailman isn’t even known to exist until the final page, his exclusion from the story until the very end allows the reader to get bogged down thinking Edie and Chris will end up together, since they were the only developed relationship throughout it’s telling. Irony is worked into the conclusion in two ways, both situational irony and dramatic irony.
Four year old Etienne and five year old Raoul Pontellier are the children of Léonce and Edna. To satisfy my clever title, I consider them Edna’s little men. We know that despite Léonce’s absences, he loves his children. About Edna, the narrator says, “She was fond of her children in an uneven, impulsive way. She would sometimes gather them passionately to her heart; she would sometimes forget them .
Creole’s like Adele Ratignolle “the fair lady of [everyone’s] dreams” (9), who treated her husband with respect and cared for her children unconditionally. Although Adele and Edna were friends there were vast differences in their goals. She wanted to be more of an entity then property of her husband and children. Edna “awakens” in at least two
Her third husband, Tea Cake, treats her as his equal partner giving her stability she so desperately needs. He wants to teach her how to play checkers which is considered to be an activity for men exclusively. She is surprised by his open attitude toward it and she says to him: “Jody useter tell me Ah never would learn. It wuz too heavy for mah brains” (Their Eyes Were Watching God, 1990: 96). Her marriage to Tea Cake is considered by some researchers as an egalitarian one because of the fact that in their relationship they are equal (Miller, 2004).
