This description of the youth is from the granddad’s perspective so could easily be an exaggeration of the truth. Her granddad makes her feel that getting. The main theme of the stories is growing up and letting go/ moving on.In ‘Fight’ the granddad is overprotective of the granddaughter and she craves freedom from him and the atmosphere of the house she has grown up in.
