the glass menagerie pt. 2

I think there's an untold story to this. The untold story is what it's like to have to settle for less to benefit others. Tom gets up everyday to go work a job making barely any money. He wakes up early and does the same thing everyday. On page 23 Tom says "You think I'm about crazy about the warehouse?"
Tim puts other people's needs in front of his to make the happy. He knows his mother and sister can't afford to live without him so instead of helping himself and only doing for him. People think that just because he works there that he enjoys working there but he doesn't have much a  choice.

I think another untold story would be living with a flaw. Laura has a problem and must walk with a boot. When she was in High School she would be the last one to walk in class and because he seat was in the very back she felt self concious that everyone could hear her coming with how bulky and loud her boot was. She even got so nervous that it caused her to get sick and she dropped out. She was scared to tell her mom so she didn't dissapoint her. People probably don't realize how you feel when you've got a "disability" of feeling like everyone is watching you or notices you, even if they don't.
