Write a short story on ‘Growing Up’.
Answers
Answer:
How do you define growing up? Is is so simply the process of getting older, or is it becoming mature and losing the innocence of being a child? This is a loaded question and the answer can be found in literature in not only what growing up is, but also how it can happen so suddenly. After reading these short stories, these three stories all have something in common. The children in it all seek independence from their parents, this is shown differently between each of the three stories. The boy from the first story has a set goal he wants to accomplish without help, the boy from the second story is breaking a tradition he has with his dad, and the boy from the third story acts without help on what he believes is an act of heroism. From what has been learned from these stories, growing up is the time that a child decides to start being independent from their parents.
