His father never showed him love, and that is why Troy can´t show Cory love.]]> 2021-01-14 16:45:27 UTC https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088043167 ijack000 https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088044127 It's hard for troy because all he wants for his son of make something useful of himself . Troy doesn't want him to be like him and waste his time on a fantasy. Troy says (page 35 paragraph 9)

Troy also said that he will see if Cory would do his chores and work at his job. Troy also doesn't think that Cory is working hard enough. TROY: "I don’t want him to be like me! I want him to move as far away from my life as he can get. You the only decent thing that ever happened to me. I wish him that. But I don’t wish him a thing else from my life. I decided seventeen years ago that boy wasn’t getting involved in no sports. Not after what they did to me in the sports." This quote supports my argument of why Troy will not sign his Cory up because, in Troy's childhood he had a rough childhood and he did not want Cory to have the same experience as what Troy himself had experienced. Childhood is taught by the way of life that you experienced and it is and how you turn your actions toward others.]]> 2021-01-14 16:45:55 UTC https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088045955 https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088046415 Malachi Davis                       ]]> 2021-01-14 16:46:00 UTC https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088046415 https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088046922 I think that social justice is portraying how troy wants his son to be and he wants to basically control him.

In Fences, Troy expected the world to hand him the title to be a pro baseball player but he was in prison when he learned and played which prevented anyone from knowing about Troy Maxson.]]> 2021-01-14 16:47:01 UTC https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088051873 https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088053478 The reason why Troy didn't sign the papers for Cory is because there is both resentment and because he wants whats best for him. I fell like Troy wanted the life that Cory is able to have now and he also feels like he can do better than him. It also feels like he is trying to protect him from the hardships that he faced when he was younger.]]> 2021-01-14 16:47:20 UTC https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088053478 celli006 https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088054064 i think he's not showing love because then that would make him soft and he wouldn't have anything going for him while on the field so he is doing that to push him more.]]> 2021-01-14 16:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088054064 porshia_malfoy https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088056301 He sees himself in Cory, and since he already has such resentment towards himself, he passes that resentment onto Cory.]]> 2021-01-14 16:47:50 UTC https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088056301 https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088795697 Conservation means a person who is averse to change and holds traditional values. A continuing statement in the play is that Troy is stuck in the past and holds onto traditional values as said in the definition. In fences, Troy doesn't believe his son should continue playing football because he is stuck in the past and thinks that he is going to end up just like himself. ]]> 2021-01-14 19:02:04 UTC https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1088795697 https://padlet.com/csanford20/i2vnr4shka2yr9tg/wish/1089519808 The internal conflict is Troy's struggle with never accepting he did not have an opportunity to play big league baseball.  
The external conflict is Troy struggling to accept Cory may have  opportunities Troy never had  - Troy is very jealous.
