Answer:

She naturally assumes that the boy is responsible for the change in her son's behavior.

She is loyal to her son and as well the last person to believe the worst until it is too late.

Explanation:

Laurie's mother in the Shirley Jackson short story, "Charles," was undergoing a change in her mothering skills due to her son simultaneously changes from cute little boy to misbehaving young terror. Laurie's mother willingly believes everything he has to say even though she sees that he no longer pays her much attention and as well talks back to his father. After hearing stories about Laurie's new friend, Charles, and his antics at school, she naturally assumes that the boy is responsible for the change in her son's behavior. It is only after she learns at a PTA meeting that there is no Charles in Laurie's class that she realizes it is Laurie who has been causing trouble at school. Like most mothers, she is loyal to her son and as well the last person to believe the worst until it is too late.

He wanted nothing less of Daisy than that she should go to Tom and say: "I never loved you." After she had obliterated four year
solmaris [256]

Answer:

This passage is from chapter 6 of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby", where Nick believes Jay Gatsby's dream of getting Daisy back after all the years is ending.

Explanation:

In Chapter 6 of "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Nick Carraway narrates how Jay Gatsby had wanted to get back with his former lover Daisy. But Daisy had already married Tom Buchanan, who Jay despises.

Tom and Daisy had come to Gatsby's house to party and Tom had decided to follow Daisy just to keep an eye on Gatsby. After the party got over and everyone has left, Gatsby exclaimed to Nick that Daisy is different, that "<em>she doesn't understand</em>". When asked further, Nick realizes that Jay wanted Daisy to leave her husband and come to him. He wanted her to "<em>obliterate the four years</em>" she's married to Tom, and "<em>go back to Louisville and be married from her house—just as if it were five years ago</em>". For Gatsby's part, it sounded a bit greedy, expecting her to act how he wanted things to be.

Madly in love with her, he wanted to get back with her on his terms, not thinking of what the others will feel. This, Nick feels, is the blatant end of Gatsby's dream which was to get Daisy back. This is his version of truth, Daisy telling Tom "<em>I never loved you</em>" and go to Jay, while the truth was that it was just a dream, wishful thinking. Unable to see past his own fantasies and wants, he believes and want/ expect Daisy to return to him.
