"The theme Consequenses"
The theme "Consequences" is portrayed mainly in 2 ways.
Mr. Keating makes the choice to teach in very unorthodox ways, and mentors his students about life. this has the consequence that it leads to Neil disobeying his father and embrace his acting dream. When his father forbids him to pursue acting Neil kills himself, a consequence to the father's choice of not letting his son pursue his dreams.

Characters

The narrator: The gender is unknown, but we can assume it may be a woman. She is very conflict-averse, since she avoids telling the women off, because she is afraid of the consequences of creating a scene or get kicked off the buss

Mariam: Mariam is the daughter of the narrator. Her age is not mentioned, but we can assume she must be about 6 years old. Mariam is a kind child, who has learned from her mother to respect everybody and never let anybody step on you, so it's a big shock to seem her mother being stepped on like this, and even being refused to give her seat up, when she tries to give it to the old lady, but her mom, her role model, keeps keeping her from doing so.
