Would you consider Sister round or flat? Please elaborate on your answer.
I would consider Sister to be flat. Her character stays the same during the entire story. She constantly questions and denies, what people tell her is true. She continues to act like she knows more than everyone and she believes that her conclusions are correct.
How do we find out about Sister’s character?
We find out about Sisters character by reading about the way she responds to situations and the conversations that she has with her family members. We also see her character come out by the actions that she takes when she moves out of the house.

The Last example, is through dialogue. In the beginning of the story she always talked to her mother with great respect and honor, but she slowly started to see her mother as a weak figure and someone not to look up to. She constantly told her mother to get a job and support the family and even to leave Rex. She also changed the way she addressed her father, she always looked up to him and asked him to tell her stories, but after her father broke her birthday promise to stop drinking she never treated him the same. One example is when she got into a fight with her father for disrespecting her
To begin with, one night Jeannette is awakened by a slithering sound. When she tells her sister Lori, whom she shares a room with, Lori tells her it is just her overly active imagination. She then leaves the room scared, and tells her Dad about what had just happened. Her dad
Jeannette is the second child of four children. She tells her life story through the book. She starts out from her earliest memory, when she was three years old, and into her adulthood. Her actions foreshadows that she will be successful when she grows up away from her parents. Since Jeannette’s parents were often careless of their children, Jeannette had to take care of younger siblings and work to get money for food, but she still loved her parents. Eventually, she decided to leave her parents and go to New York. There she became a successful author and journalist.
Jeannette Walls is shaped by the independence of her entire childhood as she learned how to create her own future and fend for herself. For example, as Rosemary Walls throws another fit about her “horrible” life, Jeannette vows that she will never end up like her own mother and that she would never feel sorry for herself (248). Jeannette is tired of having to always pick up the messes that her parents constantly
Throughout her early childhood, she ignores her father's drunken escapades, and thinks of him as a loving father and excellent teacher of the wild. It isn't until her junior year of high school that she realizes the indisputable flaws her father has. She resents Dad's drinking and how he constantly lets her and the rest of the family down yet never openly admits it or allows his flaws to be discussed. Jeannette also begins to resent her mother, whom she’s never been close to. Some cause of her resentment includes her mom’s refusal to hold down a job long enough to provide her kids with a stable food supply, especially since Rex won’t be providing like he says he will. This resentment eventually motivates her to move away from her parents and Welch. She ends up in New York City with her sister Lori in which she focuses on her studies and becomes a successful journalist. Jeannette is a natural forgiver and it shows even when she moves away from her parents, but this doesn’t stop her from being haunted by her past and with her transition from poverty into the upper-middle class. By the end of the novel, Jeannette is a symbol of the resilience and
Is there a relationship between rising US unemployment and the rise of the Canadian dollar?
Some character traits that Sarah occupies are scared, friendly, courageous and enthusiastic. Sarah is scared because like most movies or shows the dad is the boss or head of the family and the girl is always scared of her dangerous dad. Her dad is basically the commander of the area, and both DJ and Sarah are scared of him. She is feared of his dad because in the book it states that “you also don’t want to tell anyone how we got your stuff, especially my father. We both would be in big trouble.”
All the characters she played were key people in the journey to self-discovery for the main character. Most of the time the characters brought her down and made her feel bad about her person. Although there was one character that helped her through her daily struggles. This character was her grandmother, who helped her with advice a few times. Otherwise each character would take advantage of her, yell at her, or make fun of her. A good example of a lesson she learned when she was young was when she was trying to get the attention of a young boy who she would try to play basketball with after school. Being so young and naive she believe this boy to be her boyfriend after just one conversation with him, the next day when she mentioned that she was his girlfriend, he responded quickly by making fun of her and leaving. But gradually her boy problems only worsened, as she got older because things became more serious. The title “SHE GON LEARN” is a good representation of the show because it really is the journey of a woman fighting her way through life making the best of it and learning from her
Every person strikes a breaking point at some point in their life due to some sort of issue that has occurred. These are the people that shape our world into what it is today. Kurt Vonnegut, a deceased but not forgotten writer that is known for his unique characteristics and eye-catching elements that create an unforgettable book, would agree with the fact that there are several things to love about life, but that we need to keep in mind that life is not a fairytale, meaning that you should not expect perfection in your daily life because perfection simply does not exist. In the story 2BR02B, Kurt Vonnegut conveys the theme the world is not always a bright place to live in by using different examples or external conflict,
An additional theme heavily shown throughout the book is “people are defined by the choices they make”. Ben left his little sister, Sissy, to die, even though he could have made an effort to save her; because he left her, he now vows not to run from danger or those things which scare him. Furthermore, Cassie promises Sammy that she will find him and, because she makes that promise, she will stop at nothing to be with him again.
Lastly, her family betrayed her by not listening to her side of the story after her sister told lies about her, and they betrayed her when they acted as if they did not care if she moved out of the house. In all of these actions, the family itself and certain members of the family are portrayed as uncaring, unsupportive, disrespectful, conniving, deceitful, and hateful to Sister. Through every action of the family, Sister is treated harshly, and she tries to not let this bother her. Yet, anger and bitterness build up inside of her until she cannot take it anymore. Consequently, it built up so much inside of her that it severely affected Sister so profoundly that she moved away from her home to get away from her family.
