The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Chapters 8- the end

In the story i learned that family is really important because when you don't have a mom or dad you cant do anything when you just a little kid. In the story Benjamin was old when he was born and when he needed a place to stay in his dad was there because that what a family does is take care of each other and give them a place to stay in in the story. In the story family really mattered because when he was getting younger and he wanted to go to a school his son put him in there and when he needed a place to stay in his son let him stay in his house with him. In the story if Benjamin didn't have a place to stay in or somebody to support him when he was getting younger or when he wanted to get in a school he couldn't of because his family would of done something to help him.



Then there is age that really mattered in the story. In the story when he was born and then a few days later his father put him in a kindergarten they didn't excepted because he was to old that he always fell asleep in the class so he didn't go to kindergarten. Then when he got just a little bit younger he went to a collage to apply he couldn't because everyone say that he was to old to be in collage so the people that were in that collage chased him out of there. Then there was a time where he went to collage where his son graduated from and he was partying and he joined the football team and he was young and big tall he was scoring touchdowns and everything. Then in a few years he started to get younger witch he couldn't do anything good anymore like he used to and that's why age matters. After that they sent a letter that said for all the people that where in the war to go back there. When he went back there and the Cornell said that he was to young to be a civil war man. That's why i think age means in this story that sometimes your to old for stuff and sometimes your to young for stuff.

I think that beauty in this story is how you look. In the story everyone thought that Benjamin was his fathers grandpa because of the way he looked and this is why he didn't get into school because he looked old. Then there was a time in a story where Benjamin liked a woman where she looked good and everything. Then in a few years he started to lose interest in her because of her looks witch he got younger and handsome and she got old and ugly. This is why i think beauty is in this story.
