Well yes, I think they were actually the main influence for Dallas' cold attitue. I mean just think, if Dallas had loving/caring parents would he turned out like he did? No. In my opinion, Dallas began "living in the streets" because he was trying to get away, he doesn't act nice or want to get attached to anyone because he doesn't want to get hurt again. He turned tough and scared some people, like I said now no one could hurt him emotionally and physically.

If Dallas had the kind of support and care that Ponyboy had, then he would of probably had turned out more like one of the Curtis boys and wouldn't have ended up dead.
