Ethos Pathos And Logos In The Outsiders

The Outsiders was written by S.E Hinton, and she broke the stereotype for female writers in the 1960s. In the novel The Outsiders, different characters make several choices that affect one another's lives.
A choice made by Darry affects Ponyboy by making Pony do bad things.”You don’t yell at him!” Darry wheeled around and slapped me so hard that it knocked me against the door”(Hinton 50). This choice was made because Ponyboy was being disrespectful to Darry, and that's why he slapped Ponyboy across the face.
A choice made by Ponyboy affects Darry by making Darry think that Ponyboy doesn’t trust Darry or is not comfortable around him.”Where’s Soda?” I asked, and then I could have kicked myself.”Why can’t you talk to Darry, you idiot?”

I said to myself.”Why don't you feel uncomfortable talking to Darry?”(Hinton 158). This shows Ponyboy feels uncomfortable talking to Darry.
Johnny’s decision to kill the Soc Bob, affects Ponyboy because Ponyboy could get into a lot of trouble.”You really killed him, huh, Johnny?”Yeah.”I had to, they were drowning you, Pony”(Hinton 57). This shows that Ponyboy could still get in trouble like getting arrested, or going to jail even though it was Johnny’s decision.
All of these choices have an effect on one another because these choices could change the way you are, make you become a bad person, and even losing trust with someone that you love. In the novel The Outsiders, different characters make several choices that affect one another’s lives.
