Christina describes her mother’s primary concerns centralized around how she wished to be perceived by others and the public image she wished to project 74-75). Her false displays of intimacy, excessive vanity, egocentricity, lack of empathy, and attention seeking behavior are evident in her interpersonal relationships and emotional neglect of her children. Her career as a film star exacerbated these negative personality traits (27, 83). Any affection she showed toward Christina usually took the form of a shallow nod of approval or pat on the head for performing tasks such as mixing alcoholic beverages for Joan and her guests or when in the presence of others, but in private her treatment of Christina was very cold and her parenting style was excessively rigid, strict, and authoritarian. She relied primarily on punishment (particularly corporal) and negative reinforcement to gain compliance and desired behavior.
The conflict theory is used to criticize society, rather than explain it. Humanity is seen to be organized into groups depending on their social status, or power. In “The Family Stone” when Everett brings his girlfriend Meredith home for the first time there is a clear imbalance between the powers of her as an individual verses that of the Stones. Before Meredith had even arrived at the house there was a certain impression of her based on the opinion of Everett’s sister, Amy, who openly expressed her dislike for Meredith. When she came into their home there was an obvious difference, she was very proper, anxious, and stressed.
This presents the notion of Nana’s objective resentment towards Mariam and makes the audience aware of the uneasy relationship between the two. Hosseini continues to effectively elaborate further on Nana and Mariam’s strained and deplorable relationship by revealing to the audience the reason for Nana’s spite and unforgiving nature towards her own daughter, which is the fact that Mariam is an illegitimate child, the product of a shameful affair ‘who would never have legitimate claim to the things other people had love, family, home, and acceptance’. Hosseini enables the audience to have an accurate picture of the relationship between Mariam and her mother in the way that he then builds on the image he has given the audience of Mariam, ‘a clumsy heirloom-breaking little Harami’. It is clearly portrayed that Nana blames Mariam for her misfortunate and bitter life. However, this is in stark contrast to the way in which Hosseini presents Jalil and Mariam’s relationship.

Skeeter’s mom could be considered a bit sympathetic character from the story. A major scene that can explain this would be when Constantine’s daughter showed up at her house while the Daughters of the American Republic were there. They disliked the fact that Constantine’s daughter disobeyed her, so they pressured Charlotte to do something about it. You can easily see Charlotte’s hesitation her face; and even though she didn’t want to, she had to fire Constantine in order to look good in front the Daughters of the American Republic. 4.

They’re cases where females are bullied to the point where they resort to drugs and alcohol to make the pain go away, drop out of school because they can’t face their tormentors, causing some type of physical harm to their bodies, and or even resort to taking their own lives. Bullying begins at an early age whether we know it or not, for example not being invited or allowed to play with certain kids at recess. You can point out bullies on the elementary school playground or by the lockers at middle or high school; groups of girls tightly hanging together, the all-powerful cliques. Perhaps they’re whispering or looking down their noses at other girls. Or their madly sending nasty text messages or leaving anonymous commentaries on social websites like MySpace or Facebook.
An Internal Change The most significant event that marks an immediate change in the attitude of Janie and causes change in those around her, is her rebuke of Jody. Throughout the majority of her second marriage she had been paraded about as a possession that was a part of Jody's image, but once she chastises Jody and in tandem destroys the almost divine image he had built for himself it marks a personal change. To fully understand the change the Janie experiences during this moment of rebellion there needs to be an understanding of the circumstances that were forced upon her during her marriage to Jody. The first line of chapter seven, the chapter where said event takes place, is, "The years took all the fight out of Janie's face." This
Kat is disappointed with teenage popularity and claims “I’m not hostile, just annoyed” This shows her choice to ignore the upcoming dramas of teenage normalcy and embrace her own individuality. Her attitude shows she has deep anger issues likely caused by her Mother’s abandonment and the fact that her younger sister is now the centre of attention. “I don’t only want to be an object to be adored” With the use of this quote it shows her anger towards today’s society and the only way to belong to something is to be ‘popular’ or to just be an object for everyone else’s entertainment. Kat is outspoken in class and expresses strong feminist views from Betty Friedan, Simone de Beauvoir, and Sylvia Plath, which help support her theory and aggression towards teenage ‘normalcy.’ But by the end of the movie Kat starts to fall in love with Patrick who is very similar to her and is happy not fitting in with the expectations of teenage popularity, therefore she finds her sense belonging and learns that pushing people away isn’t always the answer. With the interaction of the people around her they had shaped her into the girl she was and the women she
