“Thank you, M’am” by Langston Hughes
Parenting effects everybody. Either you are a parent yourself, a kid, or maybe you’re both.

Your parents are the ones who make you glasses to see the world through. Your parents teach you regular stuff like riding a bike or making a bed, but that’s not the only thing they teach you.

They also teach you how to act in different situations, how to treat other people, and when you get older, they teach you how to handle things on your own.

But not all parents give their kids that kind of upbringing. If you don’t get taught those kinds of tools to handle life, you’ll also meet the consequences. If no one is there to teach you what do to and what not to do, how could you ever know how to act?

That is one of the difficulties Roger is facing in Langston Hughes short story “Thank you, Ma’m” from 1958.

This analytical essay will focus on themes as parental betrayal, independence, love, and forgiveness. This essay will also focus on the setting, characters, and messages.

“Stone cold” by Robert Swindells
Poverty and homelessness take place almost everywhere in the world. People can’t afford their homes and end up on the streets.

Sadly, is it not only adults who lives on the streets, but more and more kids end up there. They sleep on benches and pick out food from trashcans, or even worse, they don’t get any food.
