Helicopter parent

As earlier stated, Sam lives in Montana with her dad. I’d imagine that they are are middle-class family, living in a decent home, since we don’t hear about them being either poor or rich.

How can one person in a perfectly normal functioning family lose his mind out of nowhere? He plays a large role and causes many characters to change in A Thousand Acres by Jane Smiley throughout most of the story. The book started off very slowly because it just described the setting and talked about all the people in Zebulon County living their normal lives. I could relate to this because I live in an area that is similar to Zebulon County on a farm just like the setting in the book. I also…
