by Mitch Albom
Write a 150-200 word paragraph to respond
to each question below. Your paper should be around 450
- 600 words total.
Question 1:
“I believe Charley Benetto is not a good son to his mother.
While desperately trying to please his father, he inadvertently neglected his
mother and treated her horribly. However, as Posey told him, ‘A child should
never have to choose,’ (page 188) I see him more like a fragile victim than a
malicious perpetrator. In other words, I don’t think he is a bad person, and he
didn’t mistreat his mother on purpose. If I were his mother, I would
forgive him.” (Nguyen-Jardin)
Do you agree with the above opinion? Why or why not? Use 3 specific examples.
Question 2:
“Posey is a loving, strong and forgiving woman.” (Nguyen-Jardin)
Do you agree with the above opinion? Why or why not? Use at least one example from
the novel for each quality – loving, strong, and forgiving.
Question 3:
Which scene resonated with you the most, and why? (write the
page numbers)
