As it is with Strangers About the Story Non Fiction Connection The Theme Summary Summary Summary After her long-lost half brother left, Tiffany didn't feel nearly as close to her mother as she did before, she felt as if she had just learned something about her mother, that was improtant, yet was hidden from her. Non Fiction Story Non Fiction Summary In the article, a girl, Katie, had become pregnant with her boyfriend's child at the age of 15. She had gone to school for two years, before making the decision to drop out of high school, finding it both easier to take care of her child, and to take off as much stress that was on her shoulders. Connection to the Short Story How I found that this article about a teenager making the decsion to drop out of high school due to her becoming pregnant, to the decision that Tiffany's mom, Linda, made when she was a teenager, pregnant with her first son, Jack is how they both had to make a hard decsion, to either give up the baby, and continue school, or keep the child and have to give up her school career. They both had to make a hard decison, and Katie didn't give up something that was so improtant to her, by keeping the baby and giving up her high school career, while Linda did give up her first child, and continued on with her high school career, but Katie didn't regret her decision on keeping the baby, while Linda regreted giving up her first child. Summary ( Continued ) Katie was able to go and get her GED so she could still say she 'graduated' in a way, but she had found how she had lost so many of her original friends, due to the fact she had to grow up and take care of more responibilities sooner then they did. Theme of the Story The theme I was able to pull out of the story, was, 'Don't give up something so improtant to you, because you'll regret it in the end.'

By: Susan Beth Pfeffer Presentation created by: Lindsay Grubbs As it is with Strangers is about a girl, named Tiffany, meeting a half brother she hadn't even heard about. Tiffany didn't know how to feel about meeting a long-lost brother That night, hearing her mother crying, after she told Tiffany to never give up something really improtant, no matter what it was, instead of going into her mom's room to comfort her, like she usually did, she let her mom cry alone. ![]() When Tiffany got home from school, she was in shock to see that everything in the house was cleaned, her mother was wearing fancy clothes and was making a big meal, which was all unusual for Tiffany's mother, causeing Tiffany to feel not nearly as special to her mother as her long-lost brother, Jack was to her. A short story that I found was similar to 'As it is With Strangers' was an article that had to deal with a teenage dropout, that had gotten pregnant, and was all alone in taking care of the baby, while going to school. This article is similar to the short story because it has to do with making a difficult decison, due to becoming pregnant at a young age. Many of the students had bullied Katie, and her parents and boyfriend were there to support her, but they were never there to help her with the baby as they always worked. Her father and principal begged her not to drop out, but she felt hopless, as she wasn't able to propperly take care of her baby or be able to fully consentrate on her school work. In the short story Linda decided to give up her child to continue on with her high school career, and wound up regreating giving up Jack for adoption. After seeing Jack for the first time since she had given birth to him, she had regreted giving him up, and warned her daughter to never give up something so important to her that she'd spend every waking moment wondering about it, worrying about it.
