In Jonny and Tyrone are partially responsible for Eric Morse’s death because of the lack of parental figure to teach them from right and wrong, and the security of the building was poor. One reason Tyrone and Jonny are partially responsible for Eric Morse’s death is because their parents weren’t there to watch them and keep them from making the poor actions they made. In April LeAlan goes to interview Tyrone's dad Tommy in the prison visiting room. LeAlan asks Tommy “Do you feel that your absence from seeing your son led to the alleged incident?” Tommy then responds with “Yes, it did. Because I feel that when a father and his child are separated, the child has a tendency to take the wrong route in life. Especially if the father has instilled values in his kids and has always been there for them to show them the right way and the right things to do…You can keep him away from the bad people and tell him,‘Stay away from Shorty!’But …show more content…
LeAlan writes his observations of the building. He writes, “ Going in the building now. Don't need keys and don't need to sign in, just walk right through, they don't ask questions... Pampers and dookie… someone breaks into your apartment or little kids throw rocks and break your glass, so just to be on the safe side you bored yourself in and live in darkness. No windows. The only light is from your lightbulb. They've been doing that for years. I would not live in here no way, nohow...” (Our America pg. 91) In other words, LeAlan hates the building’s environment and finds it sad/disgusting. Because of this, I think that Johnny and Tyrone used this building since they knew that the security was low and that it would be impossible for them to get caught by anyone. Therefore the lack of security in the building shows how Tyrone and Johnny are partially responsible for Eric Morse’s
Mr. Holloway’s bad heart prohibited him from being the dad he wanted to be to
There were a total of seventeen crime scenes due to his actions. The parents believe that they unfairly treated this crime because they failed to consider that their son had a mental illness and also failed to prevent such things from happening. The victims killed were George Chen, Cheng Yuan Hong, Weihan Wang, Katherine Breann Cooper, Christopher Ross Michaels-Martinez, and Veronika Elizabeth Weiss.

Then when he told Mr. Byrnes where Sarah was, it was a decision he made for both himself and Sarah, because if he hadn’t told Mr. Byrnes, then he would have been dead and unable to help her anymore. In addition, when Eric kept Sarah from going to Colorado, it was a decision for both of them because he knew that if Sarah stayed, then she could have a family, but also that Eric did not want to lose her or her friendship. Even though Eric had to choose Sarah’s safety over her friendship for different decisions of the book, he was able to do it in a way that he saved their friendship and kept her
Because the father was so involved with himself, he did not make the time or put the effort to develop a proper relationship with his son.
The children have an abusive mother and that motivates them to perform the actions they do. The way they were raised and the environment they grew up in was not the ideal situation. I believe that crane blames the mother as well and Pete for the downfall of the characters. The characters grew up in a household that was abusive and it showed why the children were doing the things they were and Pete was even worse of an influence. He would egg on Jimmie and get him in situations he could have avoided, and he also got Maggie disowned from her family and kicked
Bragg’s grandfather learned to find out the young man ways “he lived long enough to see the true nature of his son-in-law’s character emerge, saw the cruelty, and his first inclination was to hunt him down and kill him” (35). Bragg’s mother felt that her husband would change for the better the more chances she gave him. Every time Bragg’s father would come back for his wife he would leave her in the end without any money and to expect another child on the way (66). Bragg’s mother and the children knew that the father could become dangerous at any time “he would strike out at whoever was near, but again it always seemed that she was between him and us, absorbing his cruelty, accepting it” (66). Bragg knew that his mother was not trying to bring the family in harm, only his mother wanted the family life and for her boys to grow up with a father.
Eric is characterized as an irresponsible character. From the play ” “She treated me as if i was a kid.”. Eric is portrayed as an irresponsible character, from his foolish acts, and him being drunk. Being drunk shows that he enjoys the time being loose from life, not willing to take more responsibility, and trying not facing the reality. Eric was having a hard time, with pressure from his father and society, he tries to escape those expectations by being drunk, which is an evidence of not being responsible. From the quote, being treated as if a kid, shows that Eric from other people’s perspective he is still a child, which shows he is irresponsible.
As a result, the narrator views Carlton as more of a guardian than either of his parents. It becomes clear that the isolation of the parents is responsible for the unruly lives of their sons. Robert
Eric’s problem began when he was the new kid in town when he met David Hallenback, the minor character, running away from someone with ketchup all over his body, looking terrified, and glancing back again and again while he ran. By this scene, Eric could guess that Hallenback was bullied. After Hallenback left, he saw a group of boys and a girl, on their bikes. The boy who seems to be the leader Griffin asked about Hallenback. At this time, Eric could observe the relationship between Griffin’s gang and Hallenback and it
An example of this is when Holden is failing from Pencey he blames his parents for making him go there in the first place. Holden might be to blame for some things like braking all the windows in his basement, but society is to blame for his downfall in mental health. “In fact, lack of success may more often be caused by what I call The Peter Pan Syndrome: they won’t grow up.”(Nemko, pg.1) Holden never wants to be responsible for the things that he causes to go wrong. He has blamed his parents for the things he has done and for him not trying at all. He blames his parents for Allie’s death and that they were the reason that he wasn’t able to go the his funeral. Holden blames his parents and doesn’t want to take responsibility for his wrongdoings.
Inside the building, there was a silence and emptiness that I did not expect. After watching Cops and 21 Jump Street, I expected the building to be filled with police officers and detainees, noises and disturbances. However, no one was at the

Such as Chelsea for instance who is in her forty's and as still having a hard time getting along with her dad since she was a child. This is something that one would expect from a child not an adult. Also how Norman is depicted as not feeling like he has done enough in his life to feel that he has lived it to the fullest and Billy Ray Jr. being shown as a kid who does not want to do anything that Norman wants to with him and eventually forming a bond with him. Over all the movie helped me better understand the concept of Erickson's specifically the ones that the character in the movie were going
