I would consider the rites of passage for my family to be rather subtle and based more on responsibility and temperament towards treating them like an adult. For one to be considered an adult in my family that person must first act like an adult, and be responsible for themselves. The fact that someone can drive or has a job does not make them an adult, what would make them an adult is more of an unspoken agreement where we no longer must worry about them needing our parents help.

This started when I was five years old when my mother let my hand go when I went into my kindergarten classroom

The rite of passage that is most significant to me is the one in “The Electric Bugaloo”.I like the point of the story. Being Confident on yourself. I like it because of the meaning is significant to me. I like the quote “Humiliation and hilarity are closely linked my little friend”. I like it because it means not to beat yourself up.
