High School Life

In her essay “What makes a Family?” E.J. Graff claims that “family” can come in many different shapes and sizes. Whether it is a married couple with 2 children, or a young girl who lives with her grandfather, Graff feels that there is no such thing as an ideal formula for a family. She summarizes her main point best when she writes “’that the family is not a thing but a network of human relations, which survives even when their forms change’” (Graff, 32). I happen to agree with most of what Graff talks about, but I however disagree with a portion of her essay. I do agree with Graff that “The adaptable human young have throughout history managed to grow into successful adulthood under the tutelage of wetnurses, tutors, godparents, stepparents, nannies, uncles, neighbors, masters, lords—whichever version the ever-vanishing family happens to take in a given lifetime, region, and class” (Graff, 31).
