Amazingly Embarrassing Parents | |
| The Glass Castle / int_1434e55c | comment |
Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Jeannette doesn't seem too keen to announce to the world that her parents are homeless in New York. It's implied that she's reluctant to introduce them to the guy she's dating because of this. | |

Hands-Off Parenting | |
| The Glass Castle / int_184e7708 | comment |
Hands-Off Parenting: Rex and Rose Mary certainly don't put their parenting at the top of their priority list. Trying to provide for themselves proves hard enough. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
| The Glass Castle / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: Unlike the book, Rex isn't depicted whipping Jeannette with his belt because she never calls out his and Rose Mary's irresponsible behaviour. Uncle Stanley is too. While in the book he tries to touch Jeannette, here he doesn't do anything against her. Overall, Stanley doesn't do as much in the book and stays more like a neutral character. | |
