responsabilty for a child

Once children are grown, their parents are no longer responsible for them.

I chose this image, because shows a boy walking by him self down a drive way. He is all alone in this picture, I think that parents will always be responsible for there kids not that they have to by any means but they will feel like they should because they will never want there children to be on there own with know help.
This relates to the story with Walter and Mama because in the story Walter keeps messing, but mama is always there for him because she wants him to be happy with his life. Also in the story mama looks out for him by telling him to stay home and not to go out and drink his life away and when he feels like doing something she makes him think about the problems he might face even if it is his dreams.
