Explanation:
What in your opinion was the best lesson that the street taught to the narrator?
Answer:
1. The narrator is an adult who is narrating his childhood experiences.
2. The narrator had a rough childhood. His parents were separated. His education was left to the streets. He had faced many difficulties and bullying in his childhood but those made him into a strong man.
3. The narrator and his father didn't have a good relation. His father left his mom when he was a child itself and married someone else. His father never wrote letters for him.
4. The narrator's mother also didn't show much interest to the narrator. She was more into music and troops.
5. The line, 'My education was left to the streets' means that he had none to take care of him or none to finance his education. He had no option but to quit his school and live on the streets. But these streets taught him a lot.
6. The two main habits were to always be ready to fight and to never fear strength.
7. The best lesson the street taught the narrator was that never to be afraid of fear. The street taught him to be a person with confidence and no fears.
