THE CURiOUs CASE Of BENjAMiN BUTTOn; CHAPTER 8-THE END

fAMily
This story says a lot of things about family. Like for example they arent supported they dont stick togethor, because first when Benjamin was first born his dad was afraid/embarrised to show his face with him because he looked very old when he had to look like a baby. Also when he had his kid and his kid grew up Benjamin got younger and Roscoe was getting embarred to get seen with him. First he was ok with it because they could have done stuff togethor but then as he grew up Benjamin was getting younger and it wasnt working out for them. When Benjamin was already old he looked like a little kid and he wanted is son to put him in school but Roscoe didnt want to and started screaming at him telling him that he has to put fake wiskers and die his hair cray so he could look old. So for me I think that family dosnt really mean much because they just care about them self. Like they dont want to deal with anything to make them look bad.

AGE
I think that age is like confusing in this story. When Benjamin gets older is like if he is getting younger. When his born he looks like the age of 70 or around there, and when he dies he looks just like a baby. I think that in this story age matters a lot is like a big deal, because they dont really pay attention to a person thats old they pay attention to the young ones. Age is one of the top things. They also get a little more respect then the older ones.

BEAUTy
Beauty is also important in this story. Well thats what I think because for example they try to make Benjamin look better when he was old. Like they try to make him look younger when he was old. Also that by him being one of the ones that look good he got a wife that also looks cute, but the thing is that she got older and he got younger. Well I think that beauty mean something in this story because they also try making Benjamin look old when he was a little kid. First they tried to make him look young and then when his young they try to make him look old.
