Connection to Sharlene's identity
Bernice Friesen has created an identity of a character that I am able to connect with. This character is Sharlene. I can connect with her in the way that, like Greg, my older brother is wanting to turn away from the direction our father is steering us in. While my brother doesn't want to drop out of school, (he wants to go to film school) my dad wants him to continue in the same field of work that he's in right now. I hope my brother decides to be like Greg and choose his own path, while I also want to go into the same field as my brother. Like Sharlene, I'll consider choosing my own path instead of letting my dad choose for me.

I really like he connection you made to the short story with your own life. I see how it relates in the fact that Greg is not obeying his father, and you would also like to choose your own path in life. I can't see a lot of evidence in this response however, I can see the main point which is Greg not wanting to go to school. My praise is that you have done a good job with connecting the short story to your own life. My polish is that I think you should add more evidence to your connections. Lastly my ponder is, I wonder what it would be like to have strong supporting evidence in your response.
