John Gray And Bobby's Childhood

Besides Johnny and Ponyboy ‘s point of view of what happened, I also interviewed one of the Socs that was at the event of the crime scene.

The Soc said that they were planning to beat up Ponyboy and Johnny but then Bob took it too far that he started to drown Ponyboy. While that was happening the rest of the Socs were going to beat up Johnny. Also, the Socs had a weapon (knife) that they were going to use to hurt Johnny. That gives you evidence that the Socs were not innocent at the

“The Devil and Tom Walker” describes the devil in the following way: “he was dressed in a rude half-indian garb, and had a red belt...yet He had a shock of coarse black hair...and bore an ax on his shoulder.” Washington Irving wrote “The Devil and Tom Walker” in 1824, which tells how Tom Walker became rich by working for the devil.

In the film Ordinary People, a lot of poor communication leads to conflict between the Jarrett family. However, most of the conflict is started by the mother, Beth. Throughout the movie, Beth is grieving the loss of her oldest son, Buck. Bucks death occurred when Conrad lost grip on his hand and he slipped away into the raging waters of a storm and drowned. Conrad feels guilty and blames the death upon himself later leading to his attempt in taking his life. While all this is going on the father, Calvin, is doing the best he can to keep the family moving in a positive direction.

The aim of conflict management is to enhance learning and group outcomes, including effectiveness or performance in organizational settings. Occurring repeatedly throughout the film are acts of “silence” and “violence”. The family could have used a gentle tone or even just been opened

Similarly, we also see in regards to Janie how she learns of how Mrs. Turner thinks of those with darker skin compared to those like herself and Janie who are lighter and the acts that Mrs. Turner
