It felt like her life was riddled with series of unfortunate events. With the most major one as of recently being the deportation of her mom. This came as complete surprise to the family and rocked there entire family structure. Having mami taken away from her left Diane feeling sad and hopeless she was worried about if they would come back for the rest of them and she was obliviously very worried about if she'd ever get her mom again. Above all else she knew that since Mami was gone she'd have to step up and shoulder the responsibility of stopping Eric and Papi's fights. Diane"s story reminds me of another coming of age story called esperanza rising. The story of Hispanic girl who lived with her family on their ranch in Mexico, and grew up living a very fancy life style she had fancy dresses, a beautiful home, and servants. She grew up living this way her entire life and thought this was the way things were always going to be But a tragedy forces Esperanza and her Mama to flee to California during the Great Depression, and to settle in a camp for Mexican farm workers. Being put in this position forced esperonsa to toughen up and get rid of her selfish princes ideals to become a strong provider for her family. although the story is different the themes of family and the immigrant experience stays the same. I infer that moving forward Diane will work harder to step up in place of her mom and try as hard as possible to keep her family together.
