There are many traditional stories in which characters are granted three wishes (like in Aladdin). What theme do many of these t
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The theme that these stories share is that every desire has a price. What makes "The Monkey's Paw" different is that even after paying a terrible price for the wish that was made, the White family continues to make wishes.

Explanation:

Stories about magical and mystical beings who can fulfill desires usually revolve around the theme that these desires must be made with great responsibility, as all magic is not free and every desire has a price to be paid and these prices do not are good.

The price of the desire to receive a large sum of money, which the White family desired, was the death of the family's son.

Even after this horrible price, the White family continues to prove inconsequential and makes another order, regardless of the price that would be paid.
