Answer:

In my opinion, the central idea of the story "My Last Roller Skating Party" is that people are happier when they don't take themselves so seriously.

Explanation:

In the story, the main character falls and hurts themselves when trying to do tricks while roller skating. While the story could have ended with this tragic turn of events, the narrator goes on to talk about how much she appreciated her friends help and company during that time even though they laughed at her after. The narrator was able to accept their laughter because she didn't take herself too seriously. Even though the story was about her injury, it was more about how she handled herself after.

Explanation: In the story, Mrs. Mallard's sister is afraid to tell her the news that she is now a widow, she is afraid that she might suffer a heart attack. Nevertheless, when Mrs. Mallard isolates herself in her room, she starts feeling a sensation of freeness. She realizes that she will finally be liberated from her oppressing marriage. This reaction is ironic since the reader is expecting her to be devastated. The theme of fate and free will is suggested because regardless of how liberated she starts to feel, she is destined to perish from joy at the end of the story.
