Hinton uses her characters, setting, and plot, to Develop and reinforce the theme. She does this by using those elements to compare Ponyboy's maturity and innocence to the rest of the characters and the world. Ponyboy starts as somewhat of an odd one out in the Greasers as he often does things different and has different values than most of them.
