Master Harold and the Boyz

In Master Harold and the Boys I noticed that Master Harold, Sam and Willies relationship was almost lie a friendship even though Sam and Willie were employed by Harold's mom. They were sitting remembering the old "good" times. I also noticed that every time Harold was in a bad mood he would get aggravated and take it out on the boys. Harold decided he would do a homework assignment on a dance competition Sam and Willie participate in, but after receiving a phone call from his mother stating that his father who is a drunk and very sick would be returning home after he told her to do her best to keep him there he became extremely upset crumbling the paper and throwing it at Sam. I feel the way Harold treats the boys is not fair because it is not persistent. I feel if he is going to treat them as employees he should strictly do that. He should also realize that it is not there fault when bad things happen to him.

  1. "Persistent" should be "consistent." Harold is powerless to deal with te misery his father heaps upon him, and he takes it out on Willie and Sam, who are likewise powerless to stop him from tormenting them.
