Summary of Story: The Story is about a relationship between a boy and his father. Their relationship has drifted away from each other. But when an important event draws them together, the father realized what he has done wrong and what he has to do to save his relationship with his son.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Character Analysis: The Father: The father is an alcoholic. In this story he is portrayed as an insensitive boor who has poor judgment and constantly embarrasses his son. The father bases his thoughts and judgments on how other people would think of him. He thinks he knows his son Johnny the best, but he actually knows his son the least out of everybody. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Johnny: Johnny is an active boy who is shy around certain adults. He rarely expresses his feelings to his father, but rather to his mom. His relationship with his father made him a little left out because his friends' fathers usually play and work with each other.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plot Analysis: Beginning of Story: In the beginning of the story, the father and his son was described and the relationship between the two were clarified. The boy had to go to a meeting with his dad in scouts, that was when.....--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Middle of the story: In the middle of the story, the son and his father were in the meeting. The father embarasses his son in front of the scouts master by saying how he would rather take his son to a burlesque show rather then coming with him to the meeting. Then when Johnny was presented an award, his father raises Johnny's hands up to the air like a referee. This causes the important turning point......---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------End of the story: At the end of the meeting, Johnny tells his father he did not want the award.

Then he realizes that everything that has happened to him was all his fault, and he wonders if he will ever fix his position in the relationship with his son again.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ever thought of these? How come Johnny's mother knew about the relationship between Johnny and his dad and she didn't do anything about it? Isn't family suppose to help each other out? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- My thoughts/comments/opinions: I thought the story was really good. The author described the characters so realy it was like i was right there in the story with Johnny and his father. I would rate this story 9/10. I think the part when the father hold up his son's arms into the air like a referee was the biggest mistake he made. There was a thought I had when I was reading the book. If my father was like the father in this story, I would probably tell my friends and tell my mom to help me with the problem. Johnny didn't do anything at all to fix the relationship between his father and himself. So I think he should've done something to fix his position in his relationship between his father.
