These traits influence her relationships with others. “AMANDA: You smoke too much. A pack a day at fifteen cents a pack. How much would that amount to in a month? Thirty times fifteen is how much, Tom? Figure it out and you will be astounded at what you could save. Enough to give you a night-school course in accounting at Washington U! Just think what a wonderful thing that would be for you, Son !” Amanda’s worries come into play here when she asks her son Tom how much money he can save if he stops smoking. She cares about how much is lost in that, instead he can use it to do something for his future. Tom is a careless person that does not like too much worry from Amanda.
