The main conflict of the short story is when “I” the protagonist ran into her mother’s room and found out that her dad was in the room not her mother. According to paragraph 9 the protagonist said “in those days justice a good deal like my mother.” and “ myk mother would hear the evidence , weigh the evidence, and punish my brother.” to her, mom symbolizes justice, this is because when skip put scotch tape on the protagonist’s hair, the first thing the she would do was to find her mom. This shows how important her mom is inside of her. 

Another evidence to support my conflict is According to paragraph 13 “when I saw my father, most of the color drained from my face. My first impulse was to walk backwards out of the room, closing the door.” This proves how afraid she was when she was her dad because the reaction she had was trying to get out of the room.   

 

The last evidence to support my conflict is according to paragraph 37 her dad said ““You don’t…” Whap! “…ever…” Whap! “…come in…” Whap! Whap! “…here…” Whap! “…without knocking! Do you hear me?” Silence. Whap!” when skip saw this he ran out of the room. This clearly shows how strict his dad is, and how much his dad cares about the small details.

The expression of the protagonist’s face when she saw her dad was in the room not her mother clearly shows how much she resisted her father, and how she depends on her mother.
