CASA: A Partial Remembrance of A Puerto Rico Childhood

In the essay "CASA: A partial Remembrance of A Puerto Rico Childhood" by Judith Ortiz Cofer, the author describes how woman gather in the living room on rocking chairs to gossip about men and marriages. In the story she tell how it feel like when you get married and have no time to be with your old friend again. As for mine, all the women gather in one room and gossip a lot about their daughter-in-law and compare to each other daughter-in-law how they were. Most of the time the women will say that their daughter-in-law is very lazy and never to things around the house. Don't know why they say that, but as for me sister-in-law they do, do work is just that the parent never see what they are doing. Also Hmong parent are like that, they compare their daughter-in-law to something that come out of their mine. So we talk about how everyone been doing and how is life over the other side of the state. Women talks a lot about their man too, because they always say that the man never stay home and always have to so out to do things for other also not around the house. Well as for me that what men do they go and help other but what about the person in the house that is waiting for you to come and take care the kids. Most of the time woman work hard to raise their kids by themselves, because their things around the house that know one is helping you to clean them up. But as you get married everything will change cause you are now become a grown woman and a man. You will have to learn the way as the grow up one do to and help around the house often. Also you will learn something new every time when you do something around the place. Maybe will make new friend around your neighbor and share each other problem.
