The reader can understand the relationship between father and son by simply reading the salutation. Chesterfield directly refers to his son as, “boy,” this shows his lack of respect for him along with his absence of familial weakness to him in contrast to his wife, which he states further on in the letter. Another example of diction that shows his values is how he repeatedly reminds his son that he is young; this is used to belittle his son and make his advice carry more weight. Last, he uses the word, “friend,” to give the tone in which he wishes to give his advice. He sought to give advice as a peer rather than a parent, which shows his devotion to his son because he is not acting like the dominant father he very clearly is.
It’s incredibly evident to the reader that Lord Chesterfield’s son takes advantage of him and this letter is probably Lord Chesterfield’s last effort to guide his son. Lord Chesterfield’s wisdom and core values that he has acquired throughout his life are portrayed into this detailed letter to his son using a variety of rhetorical strategies. In Lord Chesterfield’s introduction to his letter, the atmosphere of the message itself is modest and gentle. He uses his words in such a way that it comes off as if the advice he is going to give is something that his son has grown tired of hearing but Lord Chesterfield is going to share this same piece of advice one last time with his son in a gracious way. One example of Lord Chesterfield’s humble attempt to fill his son with his judgment is through personification: “I know how unwelcome advice generally is;” (lines 5-6).

The father's initial reaction is to leave the man alone, but after the boy's influence, they talk to him and give him food. This input from the boy helps build the father and son's relationship that the whole novel is based on.
The correlation between relationships and an individual’s sense of belonging can be clearly seen in the loving relationship between Romulus and his son Raimond. Both truly belong to each other through the unconditional bond of love between parent and child. The relationship also gives belonging to both through Raimond giving his father the strength to overcome constant tragedy as shown by the quotes “My son is everything to me." and “never say I don’t love you” and with Romulus doing everything in his power for his son to have a better life “he denied himself so I would have more”.
