The effects of no parents

Can you picture what your life would be like right now if you had no parents? You would not have most if not close to everything that you would have right now. You would most likely be on your own, doing almost everything by yourself. Now that is how it is like in the book the “The Outsiders”. Now think what it would be like in the 1960’s.

In Tulsa, Oklahoma, the Parents of the boy’s in “The outsiders” had done something to their child to where the boy’s are in the “The Outsiders”. So how did they get there? The Curtis parents were killed in a car accident which Darry takes care of the gang family. Or maybe the parents aren’t dead like Johnny’s parents. When the parents were physically abusing him or they're ignoring him. So then Johnny would stay away from his home for long periods of time and still his parents did not seem to care. And that would be why he was in the greasers gang.

Of what all that had happen in the greasers I would have to say that it was most if not all of it was their parents fault. Now what you might be thinking is that they could have chosen not to get in a brawl or something to lead what happen to them. But if the parents would have choose to love them and cared for them and taught them from right too wrong they would not have to worry about them doing dumb things that they did in the book.

Instead of doing dumb things what exactly would the boy’s be doing if they were loved or if their parents would still be alive Ponyboy and Darrys parents were killed in car crash they for sure would be with their parents and they would have for sure never be in the gang of the greasers. And Johnny and Dally’s parents where died so it could have been possible that Dally would not have been on the street when he was 10 years old. Overall if their parents were alive they would not be friends but they would have not had to make big sacrifices. Like when Johnny died for example.

In the end it was really too bad because it was not a happy ending and too many people got hurt and killed just because it start as a car crash and as simple as not loving your child. Many things would have never been just be not really having any parents or not real parents. (Meaning parents that love their child).That is overall how really important it is of being a good parent
