Family is a basic unit in every society. However‚ the makeup of a family is more complex to define.

The Native Americans and the Colonists have had a very close relationship throughout history. I’d say that they’ve had sort of a mutual relationship. In about 1640 the English started building colonies in in the New England colonies in colonial America. Jamestown was a common area where the Natives and the colonists had sort of mixed feelings with each other. I think the English true intentions was to use the Natives and steal their resources like their gold and their beads. The Natives

I can call it tradition for my family to move every couple of years‚ for I have moved four times in my life. I started the journey of life in Missouri‚ continued it in Tennessee where I learned to walk‚ South Dakota where I started my basketball career‚ into Ohio where I spent fifth‚ sixth‚ seventh grade‚ and now in Minnesota for the rest of my high school career.

John Steinbeck portrays the explicitness of the relationship in the novel of mice and men between the characters Lennie and George. Although Lennie and George have grown to be depended on each other throughout the book‚ hardship would constantly arise due to Lennie lack of understanding.

I firmly believed it was the right thing to do because Lennie was a danger around those around him as well as himself‚ Lennie could not survive
