The situation I have chosen is at the start of the book Taken. The protagonist, Stephanie, lives with her mother and her mother's boyfriend, Gregg. Stephanie's mother and Gregg both like each other, but Stephanie strongly dislikes Gregg. She would rather have him out of her life than in it. This results in a number of fights between Stephanie and her mother. Even after all of the disputes, her mother continues to allow Gregg to live with her and Stephanie.
The above situation serves as an example of injustice, yet assigning blame isn't an easy task. Stephanie's mother is being selfish by disregarding her daughter's wishes. However, Stephanie is disregarding Gregg and her mother's happiness by protesting their relationship. In addition, Gregg does little better by moving in when Stephanie is evidently displeased by the action. The lesson that can be taken from this situation is that, when in a fight, don't assign blame before considering your own involvement.
I like the style of your blog ! Your post is interesting.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job of explaining how this is Injustice, I would never have thought about that being Injustice before now. I think there could have been a bit more Information about why the main character Stephanie did not like her mom's boyfriend Gregg. But a part from that I thought it was really good.
