    In the book there is a situation where Joseph is pointing out Victor when he is using bad words which are not appropriate. That moment is illustrated in this conversation “‘I’ll be damn! ’ I said. ‘Don’t you use that word again,’ said my brother. ‘You’ve said it, I think, three times since we’ve been talking.’ ‘What word?’ “‘Damn.” ‘I have?’” (111). Joseph further explains to Victor that it is not good to use those words in front of his parents especially in front of his grandmother. Joseph wants Victor to respect his family and elder people because their family is blessed by God and whose families are blessed never use bad words. There is another conversation in the book where Joseph tells author (Victor) to be smart. “‘So what word could you have used instead of ‘obey’?’ asked my brother. ‘ You know what you could’ve said?’ said my brother. ‘You could have said that you needed to pee real bad and asked them to please slow down’”(215). Here Joseph is being a genius by telling his brother Victor to use other words instead of using word ‘obey’ because older people do not like when kids used those words to listen to them. That’s why author’s (Victor) cousin Chemo didn’t like when Victor used obey word because his cousin Chemo is older than Victor so he felt Victor is insulting him by using the word ‘obey’ to make him…

    Joseph was one of twelve brothers in a dynamically dramatic and slightly dysfunctional family—kind of like that movie, Cheaper By The Dozen, only without the comic relief of Steve Martin. Favoritism, jealousy, hatred, and dishonesty colored their world. And what about that dream God gave him? Well, conveniently, it was about eleven stalks of corn (representing his brothers) bowing down to a twelfth stalk of corn. He thought he knew what it meant, but his interpretation was shallow. His view of the dream was self-focused and blurred.…
