When Ponyboy asked Jerry if Dally and Johnny were alright, he noticed that Jerry was staring at his wedding ring. Why would he be staring at it?

I wonder what Johnny and Ponyboy would do if they actually got in trouble or something dangerous. They had been given a gun but said they could never use it.

On this page Ponyboy says some of the people in the gang remind him of people in the books he read. He knows that the members are real but he says he's scared of how real they are. It seems like Ponyboy is afraid of the actions others take and how they can affect him. He is scared of how real certain situations can be.

I wonder how Dally and Johnny take care of themselves and feel without the comfort of their biological family. Even though they have the gang it is clear that they still want their biological family to love them. Even if they try to say they don't care they know that love from parents is something every child craves, they have yet to experience that.

Here Ponyboy begins to realize that he and Johnny are in a horrible situation and gets very pessimistic. His mind begins to wander and he thinks that without being with everyone they will get into trouble and he's worried that he will be completely oblivious to this. He doesn't want to be so far away from the gang and his family. He knows him and Johnny are not the strongest so it will be hard to get by on their own. However he begins to lose hope and believes him and Johnny will be caught or end up in the worst possible situation.

I think the reason why Darry didn't cry at their parents funeral but cried when he saw Ponyboy because if Ponyboy ran away from and died I think Darry would have blamed himself for his death since him slapping Ponyboy triggered him to run.

Why is Dally's background always so vague. The only thing we know so far is that he grew up in hoods and always looked for fights and now we know his parents or rather his dad doesn't care about him. But we don't know what he did as a child or before he joined Ponyboy's gang.

Why do the characters in 'The Outsiders' say glory is it similar to what we say now like God or holy cow.

In this part of the book I do not agree with Dally's action in this part because he gave Johnny and Ponyboy a gun to take when they run away, they are the weakest members of the gang and they are not really well with these things, and Dally was also fine with them running away, and Dally wont even tell Pony's brothers when he should because if his brothers are worried about them they have no clue where Pony and Johnny are. Even since Pony and Johnny have a gun it still won't help them that much because they are not very well with them rather then the other people in their gang, but it might be hard for them because they have no clue what they are doing and they have no clue where they are because it is their first time running away and not being in their home town.

I wonder how hard it is for Johnny and Ponyboy to take care of themselves in these moments because they are both of the youngest gang members and they barely have experience with fighting people and living alone with out their gang members.

Why is Dally abnormally calm after hearing that Johnny killed someone and immediately recovered?

Why are the Greaser's long hair so important to them?

On this page Johnny and Ponyboy talked a lot on this page, and they talk about their gang members in the beginning of the page, and with this do you think before they ran away did Johnny and Ponyboy have this close of a connection?

# data[].attributes.body
Why do you think that Ponyboy is starting to miss his brothers and his home?

In this part Dally tells Johnny and Ponyboy that their boys (their gang members) are worried for them and they want to find them, but in this part i'm wondering how Sodapop is handling this because I know that Ponyboy and him were close, even though they are brothers they have that friend bond in them so I wonder how worried Soda is about the boys.
