Why aren't harrison's parents more emotionally impacted by the death of their son?

English
1 answer:
Sauron [17]3 years ago
8 0
In Vonnegut's Harrison Bergeron, Harrison's parents are incapable of being emotionally impacted by their son's death due to their numerous handicaps.

Because they are so handicapped, they are unable to concentrate or focus on something for more than a moment. Their handicaps prevent them from thinking clearly or remembering details. As a result, although they initially feel sad, they quickly forget what happened and continue watching television.

Identify the structure of the following sentence.
Maslowich
Haven’t done this in a while but I think it’s complex

complex contains an independent clause which includes subject and a verb in that sentence and cannot stand on its own.

Independent clause can stand on its own and makes a complete thought
