The Farmer's children

1949 was the time period of the story. Little boys were given what would be consider adult jobs. My first reaction to this story was that the parents were irresponsible both the steps mom and the father. Then I also thought that the boys should never have been sent out without a blanket or the knitted gloves. Considering the time, little boys were expected to do things like that and act like men way before they could decide right from wrong. Kicking the bucket through the wrath of winter was probably what happened. Judd shouldn’t receive the blame for anything that happened to the little boys because the family should have been more responsible and caring.
