Answer:

<h2>See below</h2>

Explanation:

Agamemnon was the leader the Greek Army during the Trojan war. When he returned home, he was murdered by his wife, Clytemnestra along with her lover. Agamemnon's son, Orestes' cannot stop the killing, but vows revenge, even though it means that he will have to kill his own mother. He eventually is able to avenge his father's killing by killing the murderers. Even though he has killed his mother, this action is considered just, so Orestes' doesn't feel any guilt over the situation. There are many similarities between that father/son duo and the Telemachus/Odysseus duo. Odysseus also fought in Greek Army against the Trojans. He has yet to return and it is questionable if he is even still alive. The suitors want to cash in on the opportunity that Odysseus' absence presents. They take over the palace and commit acts that dishonor Odysseus and his wife. Telemachus is asked to avenge the dishonoring of his father by killing the suitors. Athena assists him by telling him this story to encourage him.

tankabanditka [31]

The story that could be classified as folk tale is a) "The Orphan Boy and the Elk Dog" A Blackfoot Legend.

Folktales, by definition, are those stories and legends that originated from the lives and imagination of the people and their folklore, and they were oral literature transmitted from one generation to the next by a storyteller. Folktales were used to transmit the knowledge of the community and their legends. They do not have an individual author though they might be compiled by an editor.

In the case mentioned, "The Orphan Boy and the Elk Dog" is a 19th century folktale that explains how horses came to the Blackfoot Native American Tribe.

Kid Stuff
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The answer is below brother or sista U_U

Explanation:

Right now, here in the present. All kids or teens ever do is play video games,  or take pictures of themselves. While... there is a trend of adults playing with kid stuff. The reason why Adults play with kid stuff is because it brings  back the memories from the time they used to play with toys. My dad's interest was playing marbles and was one of the best marble players in the whole school and most of the kids would bring their marbles and shoot it around the playground and it was a big trend at my dad's school. Last time I caught (an old realitive you know) playing with an old slinky and I asked (is it a she or he?) why is (she or he)  playing that old slinky instead of  being on (his or her) phone instead and quit playing with a kids toy. (Realitive u know) sat me down and told me that just because an adult plays with a kids toy doesn't mean its immature... Its because.. it brings back the old memories from the time period I was in and who knows it might be a hobby for us adults. On Ytube I saw these people bringing out the old toys from back then and they remember it and started to play it and told the viewers that it bring back memories from the time they were in. Its not Immature if an adult was playing with a kids toy its just to bring back memories or maybe their hobby like reading comic books or play tea party or play with dolls.
