The interaction between Wes and his mother makes it difficult to say who was right. Although, I do not believe that using violence as punishment and imposing wills on children is the right way to be a mother, I cannot help denying that Wes's mother did him a good by sending him to military school, as he spared Wes the inhospitable environment where he lived and allowed the military school to change his personality for the better, but I think that her position in imposing this change of school should have been better explored. I believe she should have talked to Wes and exposed her opinion about him going to military school and listening to what he has to say about it and the behavior he is assuming.
