Question

In the chapter, "A Brabant Boy," we read about van Gogh's early life. There is a fair amount of discussion about his family and the way they interacted with van Gogh when he was quite young. Think about your family and the relationships you have with each member of the family. How do you relate to each of them? Do you behave differently when you are around different members of your family? Do you remember things about your childhood differently than other people in your family? Write a two-paragraph journal entry describing your relationship to your family members. Focus on how your relations with each person in your family are unique.

Answer 1

Answer:

I relate to each of my family members because my mom is an Artist i am too, my dad talks a lot and I do too, also my sister is stubborn and I am too. I behave differently around my mom because I am more comfortable around her. Yes I remember lots of things differently about my childhood because I can bring up times when they made me mad or sad and they say that it never happened when it did. I don't talk to my sister much because we are very different and don't have anything in common and argued a lot as kids so we don't have the best relationship. My dad is either always away for work or when he is home we are always fighting because he is stubborn and thinks he is always right and I am stubborn and think I am always right. My mom is the only one I have a decent relationship with because we can always talk to each other without arguing.

Explanation:

This is just my family. So I guess this only goes for me because I don't know about your family.
