In a few weeks since she started working she had begun to cut her hair far less often having a job seemed to even out some of Lou Ann's wrinkled edges. Motivation and support played a big role in creating these characters personalities. The reader really gets to see the difference in characters and also how combining the personalities changed their lifestyles. Family relationships played a big role in creating these characters.

P3" Taylor's mom supported Taylor's decisions and gave her the opportunity to find independence. Taylor has a really good relationship with her mother; the lines of communication and support are wide open. Lou Ann on the other hand doesn't have good communication with her mother, she couldn't even tell her mother and Grandmother she was getting a divorce. "Angel had agreed to move back in until after her mother and Grandmothers visit. P54"...
