Quote #10
"Is Daddy quitting his job, too?" Her face showed what she wanted the answer to be.
"No," said my mom, "not unless you want to live in a hut." (45.20-45.21)
Crash's dad works 70 hours a week, and by the end of the novel, there's no sign he's cutting back. That's in sharp contrast to Crash's mom, who sacrifices her career to spend more time with her family. What sort of message does that send about gender norms?
