I don’t really have a clue how the book is going to end but if i had to guess i would say that the children will eventually leave the parents. Not because they don’t love them but because they are crazy and they don’t give the children the proper care that they need to be efficient in life. The kids already feel like they provide for themselves so they might as well just go without the parents. The parents don’t see, like they want to change anytime soon; its like something is making them not want to do the right thing as adults.

The parents to me are sort of strange. I understand that they don’t have much money or much of anything,  and have trouble providing for their family, but they also have problems within themselves. Such as the dad has a drinking problem which isn’t good because that can cause more problems between their family. The mom is also off because she doesn’t really speak up and tell the dad when something isn’t good; instead she’ll just go with whatever he says. They also should not be running from whoever; they also make bad choices which is not a good example for the kids.

The glass castle so far to me is a really good book. From my reading i like the book because through out the book she has all these wacky totally different stories that she tells about her past life. Most children dont live the way she did but in reality there are actually kids who live like this and they have a book they can relate to. So i think its really cool that she shared her story about how she grew up. I also think its interesting that she went through so much hardships as a kid and ended up being able to write about her different experiences.
