A. The mother's fascination with Charles's behavior and excuses for Laurie's home behavior develop the theme that parents are often blind to their own children's faults.
Explanation:
This question is about the short story "Charles" by author Shirley Jackson. It is told from the perspective of Laurie's mother. Each day, coming back home from kindergarten, her son Laurie tells a different story about a boy named Charles who misbehaves at school. Laurie himself is misbehaving at home - being impolite, ignoring his parents, mocking them... Yet, <u>his mother and father never make the connection that Laurie is lying about the existence of this other kid. They become so fascinated about Charles, so eager to meet the mother of such a troublemaker, they don't realize their own son is Charles. They even take advantage of Charles's "existence" to justify Laurie's bad behavior, claiming Charles is influencing him. Blind to their own son's faults, it is only at the end of the story that the mother is told by Laurie's teacher that there is no Charles in their classroom.</u>

TERMS FOR CONDUCTED TOURS
I, Varsha Malhotra, the head girl of the above named school wish to contact you to make inquiries about the terms of a tour we are going to embark on. Our history teacher is organizing a tour for us in-order to show us historical sites at Agra, Jaipur and Chandigarh.
Based on this fact, I would like to know about the terms of service for the tour we are to be embarked on in-order to plan ourselves. How much would it take to convey 60 students to those places using your company's deluxe bus? The fare for the trip, boarding? And, also, do you have lodging in those places and how much does it cost per night for each person?
Additionally, we would like to know the total time the trip will take as well as the mode of payment for the trip? Do your company accept cash or can we pay through cheque?
Thank you as I look forward to your reply to my questions.
Yours sincerely,
Varsha Malhotra.
