Interpreting the narrator as mentally insane is a common analysis in some works of literature due to their erratic behavior or unreliable narration. It can add depth to the exploration of themes such as perception, reality, and the human condition. However, it's important to consider various interpretations and perspectives when analyzing the narrator's mental state in a poem.

Whats the average of people in an insane asylum who claim to have seen an aliens or UFOs?
well, do you want the serious answer, or the version I've heard... seriously, the stats are impossible for me to find!!! what is up with that? now, as my take on it would be, it appears that people who claim to have seen aliens or UFOs aren't being kept in insane asylums, which accounts for the lack of information... instead, they are being filtered into our secondary schooling system to make druggies appear normal. it's the way our government is trying to hide just how screwed up our nation really is! ;-) back on subject, I'm still trying to find out the actual statistics and will hopefully get back to you soon =]
Why was Wayne la Pierre medically deferred from military-service?
As I understand it this claim (that he was declared mentally unfit for military service) is unsubstantiated.
Which evidence BEST supports claim that Montresor is insane?
The best evidence to support the claim that Montresor is insane is his meticulous planning and execution of Fortunato's murder without showing any remorse or guilt. Additionally, his enjoyment of inflicting pain and suffering on Fortunato further indicates his mental instability. Finally, his delusional belief that the murder was justified and necessary demonstrates a clear disconnect from reality.
Does the repeated claim establish the narrator as a reliable source of information?
Not necessarily. While repetition can reinforce a point, the reliability of a narrator is determined by other factors such as evidence, credibility, consistency, and objectivity in presenting information.
One indication that the narrator of The Tell-Tale Heart is unreliable is?
Probably because he is demonstrably insane. No one else hears what he hears. His obsession with killing the old man is also evidence of his insanity. As someone who is not in touch with reality, what he has to say is therefore of dubious reliability.
Can a pregnant 17 year old move in with the father if she is mentally abused at home?
No, she cannot, without a court order specifically stating that she can. "Mentally abused" is really easy to claim, and really hard to prove. So don't expect to be able to get such a court order.
