Do you think Ruth and Travis are still angry at each other? Do you think their way of resolving their argument is effective?

"[Travis]  turns in outrage to leave. His mother watches him as in his frustration  he approaches the door almost comically." (29)

Walter do not understand each other. Walter wants to be able to get more money, but just wants him to "eat [your] eggs and go to work," so they fight a lot because of their differing views.

Walter does spoil Travis but only enough for him to understand that he gets it for when he needs it not for all the time. He gives Travis money because he does not want him to feel like he cannot afford things he wants. Walter does not want him to feel like he is poor or inferior to the other students. Travis understands this and it excited that he gets the money, he also knows that he will not always get money. Travis understands the money predicament that they are in with money for he tells his mother that the "check coming tomorrow," (16).
