4. Do you sympathize with Mrs. Creed at this point in the book? Explain your reasoning. What characters are aiding her in the search for her son? Who possesses the power in the situation and why? Include a quotation with your opinions.
I do sympathize with Mrs. Creed for a multitude of reasons. She is a mother who has lost her child. Even though it is easy to point a finger at Mrs. Creed for being so harsh and strict. However, I believe she just loved him. She said, "well,it's not my fault that other children saw my son as an easy mark." She tried too hard to watch over him though. Suffocation will not make a child happy. Sadly, Mrs. Creed did not realize this and she thought Chris was completely happy.
