    In the short story “Where Are You Going‚ Where Have You Been” by Joyce Carol Oates there is bad parenting and it costs Connie at the end.

    At first glance‚ the story “Where Are You Going‚ Where Have You Been?” by Joyce Carol Oates seems like a regular story where a girl just has home problems like every other teenager. However‚ by looking more into the story you can see that the locations of where Connie is at‚ mean something different.

    In Joyce Carol Oates’ "Where Are you Going‚ Where Have You Been"‚ Oates used figurative language to show the evil in Arnold Friend and how he as a Fiend tries to pull Connie into his corrupted world. The harsh reality that Oates includes in her story is that there are fiends that may seem like a friend around us like Arnold. By using figurative language Oates can create a fiend from what Seem to be a Friend. There are many hints that Joyce left to show that Arnold Friend is not a friend at all
