The Rich Kids

outlook on the Greasers challenges the stereotypes that underprivileged,kids not doing well in school, and kids with poorer living situations are no good,rotten and are unintelligent. The communities view on the Socs is that they are rich,smart and have a care free life. This stereotype often covered up the truth behind the Socs and the challenged they struggled in their everyday life. Even though they had fancy cars and everything they wanted they still couldn't find their happiness. The community often focuses on the Socs being rich because that what they like to flaunt, they flaunt their new cars and expensive things yet they show no emotion. They pretend like everything is okay even when everything is falling apart. When Ponyboys walking home thinking about the Socs he makes a mental statement saying, “Not like the Socs, who jump Greasers and wreck houses and throw beer blasts for kicks, and get editorials in the paper for being a public disgrace one day and being an asset to society the next” (3). The Community's view on the Socs is very different then their view on the Greasers, The community believes that when the Socs mess up it is a one time deal but if the Greasers mess up they remember it for life. They often do not look deep enough into a Soc they only see them walking around or driving. Most of the community hasn't even spoken to them yet anyone can tell you their opinion of them. The view that rich people can't have any problems or be depressed is one hundred…

The Poor Souls of the Rich Children “Do not educate your child to be rich. Educate him to be happy. So when he grows up, he will know the value of things, not the price” (Man of Honor). The Socs have it worse than the Greasers. There is clear evidence that the Socs have it worse than the Greasers because they are exposed to violence and are not given any boundaries to their games. Some may say that the poor kids struggle more because they have to learn to make a living for themselves and…

Valparaiso Zacatecas , Mexico a city where violence was seen everywhere , where children’s future did not exist , only for a few which were considered ‘the rich kids”. The rich kids tend to be successful because of their wealth , they had the money to pay for school and the security to stay safe. I was in the lower class group where school wasn’t taken seriously and it wasn’t important to children and some parents. It wasn’t rare to see kids out of school because of lack of money and some had to…

“Rich people plan for three generations Poor people plan for Saturday night”(Leigh Taylor). The “Greasers” or also known as poor kids have more struggles than the “Socs” which are the rich kids. There is more evidence that the “Greasers” struggle more because of the sacrifices and the violence they were exposed to. The “Greasers” struggle because they are exposed to things they have never seen and the “Socs” have an lot to expect from. Because of the sacrifices they made and the violence they…

Ever since I was a kid, I always found a rhythm on things. Whenever I heard the heartbeat from a toy heart that my teacher had in her classroom, in my head I always added an extra beat to it, always turned it into something musical. I always thought it was because I used to watch the Nickelodeon kids show called “The Fresh Beat Band” every single day when I got home from school, so I let slide. I knew that wasn’t the real reason because it didn’t feel like it was, but I never looked deep into my…

It is a song, but it can be considered poetry. I believe the author's purpose with writing the song is to express and reflect. One feature that stood out to me was the stanzas. The stanza feature provides each section to be separate in meaning but still convey the same message. With ¨Love¨ by Kid Cudi, he has a stanza about being happy and the next about not being down. If it were all blended together, the message wouldn't be as clear. Kid Cudi used repetition, an emotional and strong tone to…
