IRB Blog Post 7

As Sophie begins to adjust to her new life in America her relationship with her mother still seems to stay a bit awkward. Though they are not yet that close, her mother seems to be speaking for her and denying her ambitions and making decisions for her. For example when Sophie says that she wants to be a secretary when she grows up her mother stops her and tells her that she will be come a doctor and will not even consider dating until the age of eighteen.
Sophie is now going to school and is very nervous about the adjustment as she has heard many negative rumors of her school and the people that attend it. Her mother also introduces Marc to Sophie, her long term boyfriend. Marc is well dressed, put together, rich and a lawyer. He works in a well kept peaceful neighborhood, unlike the one where Sophia and her mother live with graffiti all over the walls and chaos running all about throughout the streets.
