The Glass Castle #1 Character reflection

The characters in this book are completely insane. The father, an ex-air force man is to eccentric to raise a family properly. He tried to hit his wife with a car when she was pregnant because she was overdue. That is insane. The mother on the other hand is a whiny, do nothing go with the flow person. This just doesn't work out in family life. Now, the older sister, Lori at least has her priorities straight. Go to the big city and get a good job. This is at least normal. Jeannette is another down to earth individual although she is usually the one who helps other people instead of herself which is good if she doesn't want to go anywhere. Then there's Brian. The tough guy, the brave one. He is again another semi- normal person in his family. Finally Maureen. The little brat who always wants everything. Look what it go her. A ticket to jail for stabbing her own parent. Those are the crazy characters of the Glass Castle.
