Dominik [7]

Answer:

The answer is metaphor which is shown by the term "Man of the Family"

Explanation:

Metaphor in this statement is used to paint a picture  of responsibility. A metaphor can be defined as figurative expression were a thing is regarded as symbolic to something else. it does not make use of 'Like' or 'As'.

The statement "Man of the family" is used to symbolize something different, but with the same meaning. In this case it shows responsibility. Hence. the statement "Now Ernesto, you are the man of the family" literally means that Ernesto has to take care of the family by becoming more responsible. He is to grow up and care for his Mother until they are all together in Sacramento.
