Provide a 1 page analysis while answering the following question: Two Kinds, short story. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide. An abstract is required. Your full November 15, “Two Kinds” Jing-Mei’s mother lost her family in China which brought stiffness and harshness to her personality (Amy Tan). She had to face hard times, and then had to move from China to United States. She wanted her to do some extraordinary thing that would make her famous. She would make her see Ed Sullivan and Shirley Temple’s shows, and had her have a haircut just like Temple’s to give her the look of a famous personality. She would ask her questions difficult for her to answer, expecting that she would have the required talent. She wanted her to be as talented as any big star. She did not understand that her child may not have the required talent or ability to progress at a faster pace. Instead, she just wanted her to produce the prodigy all by magic. She would scold her daughter when she argued that she simply wanted to be herself and did not want to become famous as per her mother’s wishes. At the show where Mei had to play Pleading Child, Mei introduced her boyfriend, Ali, to her mother. She was very shocked to see that her daughter had grown up to make her own decisions. She called Ali at home. During the meeting when she asked Mei to continue her piano lessons, Ali protested, and this enraged Mei’s mom. She said, “Ali! You are no one to interfere in our private matters. I already object your becoming my daughter’s boyfriend.” This was the point when Ali came to know about Mei’s mom’s aggressive nature. He said, “It was her choice,” to which she replied, “What my daughter should or should not do is my choice. So, you’d better stay away from her.”
