Cody describes holding his pain in using the simile, ”Maybe I just have to want to hold it… because as I hang here, I'm scared as anything, and I stay that way because I want to” (Shusterman 257).

He realizes he can't keep giving Brew his pain and bad feelings, as he's not experiencing it for himself. This is the first time we see Cody hold in his pain and protect his brother. This simile shows Codys change and shows he is learning the lesson that he needs to experience his own pain to experience his life to the fullest, as he held in his feelings knowing he had to feel them for himself.

Theodore Caplow 's "Rule Enforcement Without Visible Means: Christmas Gift Giving in Middletown" describes how the town and the families living in Middletown celebrate Christmas. In addition, a survey of the inventory of all Christmas activities and gifts received/given was taken in observation of the social changes and social "rules" that appear to govern gift giving in Middletown. I agree with Caplow 's message that gift giving is a social understanding adapted from childhood to adulthood because it has become part of a social system that people are unaware about. Society unknowingly, recognizes and participates in the act of gift giving because it is passed down from generation to generation yet it is not enforced. Likewise to a language or dialect, gift giving has developed its way into society.
