He has had a ruff upbringing with a controlling Mother and father that abandoned him. He feels a responsibility to stay but longs to leave. My father also took off when I was young. My mum remarried a very abusive and controlling man. When my brother passed away all I wanted to do was get away. I felt a responsibility to stay and help my Mum through a difficult time.
If I have to pick somebody I guess I'd pick Tom too. I grew up with my mother and sister. My mother wasn't nearly as crazy as Tom's mom, and my sister slept around a lot more than Tom's sister though.
In the play "The Glass Menagerie" I would say that I would identify myself with Tom. I identify myself with Tom because he seems like a hard working guy that just wants to live his life just like anyone else, instead of spending everyday working. I also am a hard working person that likes to have free time to myself instead having someone telling me what to do. The character I would least identify myself with in the play is the Mother because in my opinion she seems to be so controlling and annoying. If i were Tom's mother I would be more respective and let him do whatever he wants without controlling him.
I most identify myself with Tom because, in my family I am the oldest one with three siblings and no father. Everything is on me! I am the only one to help my mother raise us. The person I least identify myself with would have to be the mother. She is very controlling and is living her life through her children.I am the very opposite, not controlling at all and I do not like it when parents live their life through their kids.
In the play I most identify with Tom. Tom had dreams and he wanted to escape from the life that kept him away from achieving his dreams. Sometimes I feel trapped in a position and feel like because of others I am not able to achieve fully was i wish and sometimes feel limited by that.Like Tom I have had to take on responsiblilties that i was in no way ready for but had to accept it.
I least identify myself wit Amanda because she was so bitter and controlling.
I would say that I identify with all of them... It is such a sad story and, in one way or the other I've been through that myself. I identify with Amanda in a sense that she wants the best for her kids and her desperation has taken away her sanity! I identify with Laura because she has a "disadvantage" and I believe all humans have flaws and things that may not always be visible but are there. I identify with Tom because he is a young man who works hard and finds himself trapped in a nonsense routine that seems worthless...
I would definitely say I identify with Tom the most. I am very hard-working and I am the main transportation for my family..sometimes the stress just accumulates to the point where you want to run and not look back.
I would say I least identify with the mother. I would not expect anyone to live their life as I would have wanted mine to be. Everyone has a right to their individuality.
I most identify with his mother, because even though she is arrogant and severe, she just wish good things for her kids. She does not want Laura to end up like she did. I least identify with Tom, because I would never leave my family behind. For me family comes before any dream I have and I would never yell at my mother.
I identify most with Tom. I can understand his situation because we're both 1st born children and sadly alot of responsibilty is placed on us and it came be to much. Everyday i want to escape from my family but i know i can't do that to them because i need them as much as they need me. Laura is the person i least identify with because i love ME and i love life. she needs to experience it and come out of her shall
