In "My Sister, the Solider," the main idea of the article is that sometime you might be anxious for something to happen, good or bad, but those things might take a while to become true. In this case, it is about how emotional it is for a family when a member of that family is at war.
The article provides evidence from each character that supports this main idea. Mother: The mom was continuously growing anxious about her daughter being gone. "My mother checked the email every day for the next week and didn't get a message. She was increasingly concerned..." Solder Daughter: The daughter send emails when she could, but eventually stopped responding, and caused the family to stress. "We have to stay longer; I'm not sure how soon I'll be returning. Don't be discouraged, I'll be there." Daughter: The daughter was worried about her older sister and her own mother as well. "So it went on. We waited and waited, and I worried, too." |
