Why does Lake use this example of Wind-Wolf's education within the tribe in An Indian Father's Plea?
Answers
Thank you for asking this question, here is your answer:
He used this example because the thought his son cannot cope up with the children who are from different tribe and he thinks he is a typical Indian kid and cannot adjust with those students, as he shy and very quiet in the classroom.
So he is requesting to admit his son in the classroom so he can learn and become a good student in Wind-Wolf's education.
Lake uses the example of Wind-Wolf’s education within the tribe in An Indian Father’s Plea because his teacher thinks Wind-Wolf to be a ‘slow learner’ the class.
He tries to clear the teacher that Wind-Wolf is not a slow learner but a special child born and brought up with the tribal people where he learned the things differently.
He puts a great deal in explaining how his child has been learning by giving many references from his day to day life.
