There are two gangs called Socs and Greaser and they face many problems, what are some of their problems? The Socs and Greasers are characters in a book called the outsiders by S.E Hinton, and they are enemies thought the book. So what problems do they face, the problems they face are family or family history, their self, and each other.
First, how their family or family history is one of their problems. It s a problem for a Soc named Bob. It is a problem for him because all he wants his parent to say no to him and get mad at him. For example, “He kept trying to make some one to say ‘NO’ and they never did,” (S.E. page 116) this proves that his parent was a problem because if they did not let him do whatever he wanted and said no he would not have died. Another example of family of family or family history is from the greasers with Johnny. He has abusive parent how do not really care about him and because of that he felt like the gang was his only family. Multiple examples of that is when he ran away he asks if his parent missed him and Dally told him no, and another example is when he is in the hospital he allows his …show more content…
gang members in and no his family. That is how family or family history affects them and most gang member join gangs for that reason, it states it all in Allure of Gangs.
Next, how their self is a problem in their life and others.
It is problem with Bob again and if did not do the following action his and other's lives would be better. He beats up Grasers with some gang members and even jumps Johnny. Since he jumped Johnny he carried a knife with him just in case he gets gets jumped again, and once again he gets jumped and stabs Bob. It is a problem for the Greaser because of Dally, Soda and Darry. It is a problem for Dally died on purpose because Johnny died so he tries to die and succeeds. It is a problem for Darry and Soda because the are both smart and strong kids how drop out of high school to work, and they drop out to help pay the bills, most of it can be explained in Alarming Numbers of Teens, but their parents are dead. That is how their self is a problem in their
life.
Finally, how each other is a problem in their lives. They are problems in each lives because they jump each other. Every time they walk alone, small groups, or they are younger they get jumper. If they did not jumped each other they can walk home freely and without worry about getting jumped. Another reason is the rumble, which is when the two gangs or more fight each. They had to fight each other for want they want and if they did not have to do it their would be better. Also if it happened once it could happen again. That is how each other is a problem in their lives
In conclusion, that is how those problem affect them. Even though those are some of their problem, and their are more but those are the big ones. Plus that is only some ways those problems affect them. It would be a different story without those problems. In the end their lives would be easier without these different.
