Pg:98-115 Analysis:

• After bringing Ben back the family started to drift apart. The children and David refused to get to know Ben and accept him. Instead of facing the problem they went to live with their other family. That left Harriet with just Ben and Paul who don’t get along well. The happy family that at once was “perfect” was ruined and we see how the perfect family failed. There are controversies that if Harriet did the right thing or not. By bringing Ben back she lost the rest of her family. By not bringing him back Harriet felt as if she failed on her child and couldn’t bear with the guilt. She went with teaching Ben still and using Paul as a mentor.
