Q1. Why do Sam and his father fight so much? On page 3. Sam is a patriot and believes that they should have freedom and not need to pay taxes to the king. Sam's father, Life, believes that they shouldn't disobey their king and that the taxes they pay aren't that costly. And they fight about who's side is better than the other.

They fight so much because on page 34 it says SAM is going to the lobster backs and his dad wants him to be on the other side.

The reason why Sam and his father fight so much is because Sam's father does not want Sam to put his family in danger or harms way.

Sam and his Father keep on fighting because Sam wants to go off to war and fight for his and his country's freedom but his Father is a loyalist to the King and his Father doesn't want to disobey the King's rules. Another thing is that Sam's Father doesn't want to face the facts that one day his oldest son might not come home. Also, on page 33 it explains that Sam's Father might know things about the war that Sam doesn't know about.

I think Sam just got exited that he could serve and just took the gun. I don't think Sam thought of the outcome. " My loyal so Samuel stole it to go play soldier boy."

On p. 33, Sam tells Tim that he won't obey their father's wishes.  He feels he is a man now, and that he is too old for his father to tell him what to do.  Tim tells Sam that their father thinks Sam is "full of college-boy wind," and that maybe Life knows more about war than Sam does.  I think that Life just wants Sam to be safe--he doesn't want his son to be killed in the war.  At the same time, Sam is just doing what he feels in his heart is right.

sam got excited and took the gun Q2

On pages 36 and 37, Tim argues with Sam about how Sam took the Brown Bess. He says that he needs to have it to fight or else he will die.

# data[].attributes.body
Sam and his father don't get along because his father believes that he has a "college boy attitude". Sam's father also fights with him because he does not want Sam to fight in the war because he doesn't want Sam to get killed, even though Sam is just doing what he thinks is right.

# data[].attributes.body
question 2, He leaves them defiance less because he knows they will be safe. And he needs to have it or he'll die. pg 36-38

# data[].attributes.body
So basically Sam wont listen to his father just because hes growing up (but honestly we all act like adults and we're defiant but yeah. Sam just wants to be like the hero in the situation by doing what is right to him. Good job Tim. :)

On page 33,it says that Sam says that his father doesn't control him anymore Sam and his father argue over everything because they thing there both right.
