Answer:
Explanation:
Ponyboy's opinion changes about the Socs throughout the story.
It starts out with him thinking in the beginning that all Socs were
cruel rich kids who liked to pick on greasers for the fun of it,
partly from experience, partly because that was what was expected
of him. After the fire and the rescue, Ponyboy's talk with Randy
really opened up what Socs were truly like. Through talking with
Randy, Ponyboy discovered that the Socs were really not bad guys,
and they're just people. Everybody is their own person, and should
not necessarily be classified as the same just by their group or
social standing. The main difference is just the money and the
title "Soc" that separates Socs and greasers; it always just had
been that way and that is how it apparently will be forever
