This question refers to the story "The Yellow Wallpaper." In this story, we meet a woman who is sick, according to her husband. He is a doctor, and the treatment that he suggests for her is complete rest and relaxation, which eventually leads her to insanity.
When the narrator repeateadly laments "what can we do?" we get a glimpse of her passivity and the way in which she defers all decisions to her husband. Other aspects of the personality of this woman are the fact that she considers her husband to know best, even though she disagrees with the treatment and is mad at the possibility of receiving it. The woman appears to be conflicted in her emotions because she outwardly seems to really value her husband's opinion, and appears to be ready to listen to everything he says. At the same time, she appears to be mad about his behaviour and hold some resentment towards him or their marriage.

Explanation:
According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:
A. It illustrates how many people from underserved communities go down a negative path and it makes Davis’s ascent all the more remarkable by comparison.
B. It demonstrates the impact the death of a childhood friend had on Davis, who would go on to become an emergency room physician.
C. It shows that a life of crime will inevitably result in an untimely death or permanent incarceration.
D. It advances the notion that Newark, New Jersey is an underserved city.
In this text, we learn about the journey of Sampson Davis. Davis was born in Newark, NJ, and when he was young, he was involved in an armed robbery with a boy named Don Moses. However, when Davis grew up, he became a physician, while Don Moses continued to be a robber. Don Moses eventually died at the hospital where Davis worked.
The anecdote, as well as the quote, highlights the fact that both Davis and Don Moses started in the same place, but their lives turned out to be very different. This highlights the difficulties that people in these communities have to lead positive lives, as well as the strength of character Davis displayed by choosing to improve his life.

Here's how I see it. For a long time throughout many generations, women and kids didn't have rights. It was always the man of the house who brought home the bacon and controlled the house. Slowly but surely women started to get rights (like voting, being able to do more jobs and generally more things, and even though there is still a wage gap they got payed more over time), but kids didn't start having a voice until, let's say, until 3 generations ago. With advances in technology, kids started to have more of a voice and more of a role in general. A long time ago kids were factory workers as well, which is kinda out of place to put here but I just remembered so the more you know I guess. Anyways, kids started getting more educated, getting more legal rights, and with technology, much more of a voice. Kids are on social media now, child actors (like Millie Bobby Brown) are fighting for women's rights and are helping to fund charities. Kids can create youtube channels, they can create Instagram accounts, they can do anything with technological advancements today. Kids can do basically anything adults can. My mom, who is a baby boomer, talked about the fact that when she was a kid, kids were to be seen, not to be heard. Kids weren't really acknowledged by adults and were often disregarded as idiots until they became legal adults, but now a 13 year-old could have an intellectual conversation about politics with a 50 year old. So, to answer your question, yes, the role of a child has been one of the greatest shifts over time. The way it effects families can be for the better or for worse. I think it's mostly for the better. Kids can speak out now, they can learn more and do more. They have the ability to become an adults as a child, if that makes any sense. Kids are evolving now and will be for forever. I think that because kids have a voice now more than ever, it's a good thing. Kids should be smart and should be heard, and the fact that some kids are able to invent things or challenge adults to trying new things or having intellectual conversations is amazing!!! I hope this helped, sorry that this question is 2 weeks old, brainy just suggested it to me. Good luck with school!
