If Mama didn't have Dwight, she might not have the things she needs to survive. This is shown on page 89 when the text says "Mama with a fading bruise on her left jaw and her wrist in a brace..."]]> 2020-11-16 14:47:55 UTC https://padlet.com/25lambh/97aampgzmdfjdsz2/wish/927377897 25lambh https://padlet.com/25lambh/97aampgzmdfjdsz2/wish/927642484 Dwight was one of Mama's biggest vulnerabilities. Mama was always getting beat by Dwight and being mentally and physically abused which shows that Dwight is a major vulnerability for her. On page 96, the text says "Yeah, while Dwight had been yelling and throwing sh*t and making ridiculous accusations about Mama..." ]]> 2020-11-16 15:35:41 UTC https://padlet.com/25lambh/97aampgzmdfjdsz2/wish/927642484 25lambh https://padlet.com/25lambh/97aampgzmdfjdsz2/wish/927666140 Mama is definitely at a low place emotionally. She had been getting abused by Dwight for a long time, and when Dwight died, she had a lot of emotions to deal with. This is shown on page 107 when Quan is talking to one of his friends about his mom: "'Your Mama okay?' 'Nah man. Not really' was Quan's response".]]> 2020-11-16 15:40:00 UTC https://padlet.com/25lambh/97aampgzmdfjdsz2/wish/927666140 25lambh https://padlet.com/25lambh/97aampgzmdfjdsz2/wish/934873148 Mama is dependent on Dwight for many things. Mama needs Dwight for money and support since she doesn't have a job anymore. This is shown on page 64 of the text "Mama wasn't gonna get rid of Dwight no matter how often he hurt her".]]> 2020-11-18 03:23:01 UTC https://padlet.com/25lambh/97aampgzmdfjdsz2/wish/934873148 25lambh https://padlet.com/25lambh/97aampgzmdfjdsz2/wish/934878236 The reason that Mama stayed with Dwight for all of that time was because of his money. Dwight took her EBT card and her extra money from her, and it was very hard for her to get food she needed without his money. Dwight also had a job which supported the family while they needed money. The text shows Dwight taking the EBT card from Mama on page 49 when it says "But the COAN had taken the EBT card with him".]]> 2020-11-18 03:26:22 UTC https://padlet.com/25lambh/97aampgzmdfjdsz2/wish/934878236
