the glass menagerie

I really connected to this story. I did not like it too much but the characters in the family closely relate to mine. The mother reminds me exactly of my grandma. She constantly nags, and no one can ever do anything right in her eyes. She constantly feels the need to try and correct and make suggestions to all of your decisions and is absolutely obnoxious. The mother and my grandmother mean well, but they both have a difficult way of showing it. Laura reminds me exactly of my aunt...whom is my grandma's daughter.  My aunt feels like she can never do anything right or impress my grandma and is not very open because she doesn't want to deal with my grandmas criticism or complaining about EVERYTHING! My grandma does this with everyone, but especially her daughter.
