Thoreau begins Civil Disobedience by saying that he agrees with the motto, "That government is best which governs least." Indeed, he says, men will someday be able to have a government that does not govern at all. As it is, government rarely proves useful or efficient.

He describes how his family “were poor by most standards,” but how they were normally better off than others.

Looking at the derivations above from the story, we can conclude that What Alexie means when he describes “an Indian boy” who “grows into a man who often speaks of his childhood in the third-person” in paragraph 5 is; His childhood was painful to him, because as a student growing up he was always different for going up against the stereotype.
