"The Family" is a short story by Guy de Maupassant. The plot of this story is how a man changed as he got older and in poor health. His family was controlling what he ate and how much he ate due to his health. Family members would tease him telling him he couldn't have any food. When he became upset the children would laugh out loud at him. One of his old friends was visiting him and noticed that his old friend was being deprived of the simple pleasure of food when there was nothing else for him to do or enjoy in his life.
