Suddenly women were faced with an array of new possibilities outside the traditional role of housewife and mother. Many women left the home to take jobs, get educations, and fulfill other dreams; and Jackie's mother was one of those. But the liberation of women from the traditional role of wife and mother meant harm to the traditional family unit, and sometimes that harm could be quite enormous. While many women decided that a wife and mother could also have a job, get an education, etc., others decided that the family was too much of a burden for them.
It was Jack Russell who was forced to make the decision for his wife; she was no longer part of the family. While she could not bring herself to make the final break and live her life as she always wanted, her husband forced her to do so.

After all, Jackie's mother had married his father when he was in the Air Force and traveled extensively. She had no idea that her husband would be content to settle down in a small town and be content with a traditional, but boring, life. He did not consult her when he chose to remain in Montana.

She had married an adventurous young man who turned into just another boring "small-towner." Is it any wonder that she would seek comfort in another adventurous young man?
The greatest impact of the incident had to have been on Jackie, and therefore his is the most tragic story of all. Jackie Russell was a teen who was forced to grow up in a single night. When he left that evening with his father to go hunting, he had no idea that his entire life would be changed by the...

Fall Though in Paradise Lost it may appear that "the Fall" is synonymous with the act of disobeying God, a closer reading shows a certain paradoxical duality to the act of falling -- namely, that what is called the Fall is a forced physical and psychic humiliation and prostration which God enacts on those who refuse to willingly prostrate themselves in worship to him. Two opposing categories of fallenness exist,
Great Gatsby. The writer discusses the story and the plot line, the writer's life and motivation for writing it, what the critics said about the story and the writer's opinion.
