Then the directors of the school destroy his work of art because it was not kid friendly, even though they were the ones to put it into the school curriculum. I think the school’s solution to the problem was not good. Like what it says in paragraph 3 in I am real where it says, “I want you to know, too, that my publisher and I have done absolutely nothing to exploit the disgusting news from Drake.” Even when the school burned the book he said that he did not exploit them like he mentions in this quote. I think he knew his book was not for children, but what I think he really is mad about is his reputation.

Option 3: Argument Life can either be taken way too seriously, or not at all.

Salinger, Dr. Thurmer says that “life is a game that one plays according to the rules,” and Mr. Spencer mentions that idea to Holden while they talk.

Keating's fault for his unorthodox method of teaching, and encouraging Neil to go against his father wishes. Others may argue it was the fault of Mr. Perry for controlling Neil, and directing him down a path that seemed to be influenced by Mr. Perry’s own failure to accomplish his plan of becoming a doctor. Regardless of the influence Mr. Keating had on Neil, it is my strong belief that Mr. Perry’s controlling, selfish, and intimidating ways trumped any of Mr. Keating's contribution to Neil’s discovery of his inner creativity and expression.of interests. Mr. Keating helped open Neil’s eyes to a whole different side of things which his father prevented him from seeing for his entire life. Why should Mr. Keating be at fault when he tried his very best in providing an educational experience that brought him success when he was in Neil’s age?
