The Use of Force,William Carlos Williams
Indeed, i do believe that when a doctor has a reason to use force to save a patient is right in anyway he or she might choose it to be. But i guess it different when written(or typed) in paper. After reading The Use Of Force, i couldn't help but imagine to see the little girl using force toward the stranger(doctor). I guess she was just a girl who was fearful of her life or in this story, her lie.
Its a real shame how children during the early 1800s(which i believe the setting of this short story is taking place) died by illness we are now immune too. I wonder how their family's must of felt burying their young, or how their population's must of been. This kind of thing must of risen fear towards the children at the time. They probably kept them home and made missed some school here and there, but hey, things have changed for the better?
Now all we have to worry about is global warming, consent wars between our neighbors and other parts of this world. I guess living in a world covered with virus is some kind of improvement from determining who is our friend or enemy. If no one is really getting my connection here, I'm stating here is that our family's can't protect us from this world we are living in, while back in the 1800s, they could have, not implying anything wrong by that, just stating that we have really gone a long way, but i believe its from the opposite direction of progress.
