Why does Percy Jackson feel guilty about grover getting in trouble in the lightning thief?

Answer 1

Percy was guilty about getting Grover in trouble because Grover asked for Percy to wait for him so Grover could make sure he stayed safe and like, wasn't attacked by monsters on the way home. Grover was really worried about Percy since the attack of the Furry or the Kindly One. Then when Percy ditched Grover he went home and didn't tell his mom what had happened at school. When Percy and Mrs. (Sally) Jackson went to Montauk, they were chased out by the Minotaur, Grover came and tried to help them. Percy's mom was seemingly killed in the fight as Percy killed the Minotaur and Grover was unconsious. The Council didn't think that Grover passed his test to deliver a half-blood safely to Camp Half Blood. Percy was guilty because if he had just let Grover come with him, maybe things would've gone better.Basically, Percy just felt bad for ditching Grover.Hope this helped.

Answer 2

Because he feels (and he's right) that if he didn't ditch Grover at the bus station, Grover would not have gotten in trouble.

Answer 3

Because if he hadnt left Grover at the bus station, Grover could have gotten Percy to camp faster and safer. Which is why the council was upset with him
