Rose was placed, in error, in a vocational group of students, which was a lower level. He spent two years in that track before being rescued by

As a result, she lacked confidence in her education. She stated, “My early education did not partake of the abundant opportunities which the present day affords and which even our common schools now afford. I was never sent to any school; I was always sick.” Even though she did not attend a formal school it did not put her out of reach of a proper education (Peterson, 9).

Her fourth child's father is also another vital role into discovering more about Roselily. He went to Harvard so he was a very educated man. He could not live with her because she was not as educated as him and he had a wife. His function in the story is that he still has her son and she wonders if the son will ever come to Mississippi someday. The father was a good man who had a good job and money. During that son's pregnancy the father began skin and bones and had nightmares and this resulted in an attempt to take his own life. He represents her sad past and what she wants to avoid in the future.

St Patricks Cathedral is the mother church of the Catholic Archdiocese of Melbourne. It was named after St Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. The church was officially opened in 1997, however the first mass took place in February 1858.

Not only does Rose support her family but she also accepts and cares for Troy’s extended family. Living in the 1950's was a difficult time for an African-American woman, but Rose saw this difficulty as a challenge and worked to succeed. Rose often refers to the changing-times; the new opportunities for blacks. Troy, however, believes that the black man will always be inferior. Lyons, Troy's son from a previous marriage, always come around whenever he wants something according to Troy. However, Rose sees Lyons asking for money and help as a plea for guidance, but Troy refuses both to him. Rose takes a dominating role in this instance as she demands Troy to give Lyons the money (ten dollars); with it a story of guidance about responsibility. Without Rose stepping in, Lyons wouldn’t have been told the real reason for why his father hadn’t been there for his childhood. Rose works scrupulously to form a good relationship between Troy and his son Lyons, even though she is not Lyons’s mother.

Well come on…I’ll make a batch of biscuits,” (26). Rose steadily tries to be the best mother that she can be for the Maxson family and not just take care of herself. She represents the primary care giver of the Maxson household by cooking for everybody and bringing the whole family in together to eat. “Okay, Troy…you’re right. I’ll take care of your baby for you…cause…like you say…she’s innocent…and you can’t visit the sins of the father upon the child. A motherless child has got a hard time,” (79). By Rose saying and doing this, it just proves how loving and tender hearted she is. Even though Rose is not the child’s mother, she still wants what is best for the baby. “Stop that yelling. You gonna wake up Raynell. I just got her to sleep,” (80). This shows that Rose has fully accepted Raynell as her daughter. Rose does not see Raynell as just Troy’s daughter but also hers too. Rose says, talking about Lyons, “Let the boy have ten dollars, Troy,” (19). This shows how loving and caring Rose acts towards Troy’s son. Rose and Troy clearly do not have enough money to be giving it out, but she encourages Troy to give some to Lyons because she cares about everyone. Rose is a very good hearted person who uses all of her characterisitcs to keep everyone in the family together and keep them in check.

Rose lost her childhood because she had to rescue Dolly from the pub fairly often. Essay 3 – question 2 info “Cloudstreet dwells on the human desire to find meaning in life.” Tim Winton expresses many themes in his novel “Cloudstreet”, one of which is about finding one’s place in the world and the search for the meaning of life. Basically all of the main characters in the novel experience this desire and battle to find it.

| Rose is describing her frustration and also, describes her jealousy towards Caroline’s life; that she escaped from living on a farm and had the ability to choose her life.

Rose Mary’s greediness is demonstrated when Jeannette and her brother, Brian, find a diamond ring. They suggest selling it for money that they can use to feed themselves; however, Rose Mary decides to keep the ring for herself. Jeannette confronts her mother, “‘But Mom,’ I said, ‘that ring could get us a lot of food.’ ‘That's true,’ Mom said, ‘but it could also improve my self esteem. And at times like these, self esteem is even more vital than food’” (Walls, 184). Rose Mary refuses to accept her responsibilities as a mother. While her children are forced to scavenge for food out of trash cans, she is carrying around an amount of money that could buy them plentiful food for the rest of their lives. Rose Mary’s self-absorption causes her children great anguish and unnecessarily poor living conditions. Rose Mary neglects her children's needs and prioritizes her own happiness.

Also what I understood is for example how Rose had Mr.MacFarland to help him out and push him and make him to things schooling wise it made rose better himself and want to excel in school. Wich helped him out because he made something out of himself and he proved others wrong that one from the lower class can be something in

At the beginning of the book, Rose mentioned many students who suffered school for many reasons. He mentioned Laura, who took his English’s class four times and dropped it because of the fear of making mistakes. Laura’s story showed that teachers didn’t try hard enough to help students overcomes their fear, instead they let them suffered. He also mentioned Bobby, he was a star during high school but felt lost when he came to college. He wasn’t prepared well enough for college and couldn’t complete any of his assignment. The lack of preparation from his high school teachers had failed him. The score that show on Laura’s and Bobby’s test had isolated them from their classmates. The teachers didn’t try to figure out what happened to these kids, instead, they focus on the test score, and removed these kids from their classroom, put them
