In both Touching Spirit Bear by Ben Mikaelsen and “Sorry About Your Parents” by Icon for Hire‚ the parents are abusive to their children. Despite this obvious similarity between the two texts‚ this can be shown as a way the two texts differ as well. The fathers beat the sons‚ and the mothers don’t

What does the struggle of freedom say about the human spirit? First of all struggle and freedom have two different types of meaning. Struggle means to make forceful or violent efforts to get free of restraint or constriction. And freedom means the power or right to act‚ speak‚ or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint. For example‚ in Persepolis 2: The story of a Return – “we confronted the regime as best we could.” Persepolis 2: the story of a return stated‚ “It’s only natural! When we’re
