King Lear says to his daughters ‘if it be you that stirs these daughters’ hearts against their father’ which shows how he feels betrayed: a feeling he may have not felt if he had not been so foolish to dismiss Cordelia for her honesty. Cordelia, however, plays a smaller role in the first few Acts of the play as she is disowned by her father and is not visited. Gonerill and Regan are both cruel father and do not have the same loyalty we get the impression as Cordelia does. Cordelia says at the beginning of the play ‘what shall Cordelia speak, love and be silent’ which shows that she loves her father however doesn’t feel she should lie about how much she loves her father. This truthfulness however lands her in a bad place as she is disowned by her father for not professing her love.
Will you cast off pity,” again she gets nowhere and in a last plea before he get his men, she appeals to kindness and like of children. “Show some pity: you are a father too,” this is very clever as she does not actually like her children. 2. She manipulates Creon by pretending she is not a threat “I’m in no position-A woman- to wrong a King.” “I bear no grudge on your happiness:” and “I will bear my wrongs in silence.” She then appeals to his kindness to let her and her children stay. 3.

The narrator states the mother’s resentment of Connie’s beauty because “her looks were gone and that was why she was always after Connie.”[451]. Connie doesn’t make the situation between the two any better by instigating her mother with curt answers and rude responses. “Her parents and her sister were going to a barbecue at an aunt’s house and Connie said ‘no’, she wasn’t interested, rolling her eyes to let her mother know exactly what she thought.”[453]. the only time Connie fully admits that she truly did love her mother was when she was crying in the phone for her. Connie’s father is a quiet bystander when it came to his wife and daughter heated arguments.
“…not quite accepted in our town, for a boy and a girl our age to walk to church together unless there is an adult between them, but whereas I was embarrassed, Lilli didn’t care.” Since Kit and Lilli are almost like siblings, they should feel comfortable around one another. Kit may not show this, but Lilli definitely does. Although this isn’t directly shown, we can guess that Kit does not feel the same way as Lilli. During Kit’s questioning, she thought of the words “Put her in a bad light”, which displays Kit’s degree of care not to ruin the relationship between Lilli and Miss Dalgleish. It shows the aspect of taking care of those in your family, even when they aren’t related by blood.

Cherin’s narrator’s mother displays particular acts of dysfunction, and the narrator disputes his mother’s ability to deal. He gives examples of his mother’s habit, mountain, sedimentary, salient, and symbol; the specially guarded collection of stuff placed in the middle of a room creates a distance between the narrator and mother. The narrator refuses to accept his mother’s compulsive behavior because he knows she can improve. The overall approach to survival with both poems underlines obvious differences, in which Hidle’s “My grandmother the Vietnamese prostitute” suggest that survival in some occurrences is sacrificing a moral standard in order to provide for one’s children, while Cherin “My Everest in the Suburbs” suggest that some survival-means contain acts of neglect and unhealthy ways of caring for ones children. In”My grandmother was a Vietnamese prostitute,” Hidle’s narrator recognizes the hard choices made by her grandmother and mother to pursue prostitution as an alternative to survive where typically, the nature of such choices would be deemed immoral, she describes her grandmother’s job: “She fucked money and jewelry and
This shows she has little impact in the family, and could be the result of her nervous nature. The way in which Austen immediately describes other members of the family in greater depth to that of Anne's character also shows how she is at the start inferior in comparison to the rest off her family. It seems that her lack of superiority in the family has resulted in her eldest sister being the favourite with her father, and her youngest being married. Shes seems at the beginning of the novel that she was once easily influenced, and this downfall resulted in her being persuaded by Lady Russell to refuse Captain Wentworth's marriage proposal. However with the Elliot's family move to Bath, Anne is somewhat forced to emerge from her sheltered shell, and starts to flourish as a character.
At the end due to the inability of Abby to succeed in her liberty, she witnesses lack of strength and the fear her mother has at the Blarney Stone. In Morrison’s Sula, the mother’s emotional and nurturing detachment from the daughters through generations helps all of them create a female-self identity. This lack of nurture may be a direct result of the maternal figure's focus on survival, as Eva can't take time to show love for her children but is able to sacrifice a leg to ensure physical endurance. In her mind these acts confess her love for them while in Hanna's head, the emotional connection that she needs from her mother is not present. As Hannah becomes a mother herself and a mother being the first model of love that the children experiences, she emotionally detaches herself from Sula as she was detached from her mother.
She has put herself on such a high petiole. Religious she prays to God and yells for him when her life is in danger, but if you notice she does not ask to help her family.
