"Water Never Hurt a Man" by Walter D. Edmonds - Short Story Report

At the end of the story, fast one is not as afraid as he used to be. John worried about a whollyot of things and he was also frightened a lot of the time. John says to his produce Watter never hurt a creation; it keeps his hide from cracking. This says to me that John is very changed after his encounter with the other boy. John also says Say, Pa! Will you chuck me your home run whip here ashore? Them horses is getting kind of dozy. They hire soaping proper. John was scared that he would get in anesthetise for dropping his whip and he did not compliments to ask for his dads whip because he thought that his dad would get angry. John has matured and now he is acting equal his dad was. I do not think that John and his father reversed positions, just that John has grown more like his father.

I think that if certain groups of people want to initiate issue people into maturity date they should. Some of these initiations are very principal(prenominal) to the culture and are jubilations. Most initiations are not as hard as what is in the book. In some cultures, the perturb is what makes initiations so important. I know that is the past, teen native custody had to perform the sun dancing. In the sun dance the young male had two sticks through their chest tied to strings and the strings were tied to a t in all post. The young man had to dance around the pole for days until the sticks ripped from their skin.



The scars that they watch from this ceremony symbolize their entrance into manhood. A celebration of adulthood is the Jewish Bar Mitzvah. When a Jewish boy reaches the term of thirteen, a Bar Mitzvah ceremony will be held. A Bar Mitzvah is a religious celebration of adulthood, and a vast party is held in commemoration. I trust many initiations are just about carrying on a tradition from generation to generation. I think that almost all initiations in to adulthood in our society are all about religion and cultures, and they should be celebrated freely and without restraint.
