The narrator didn't make doodle die. I am saying this because of the reasons in the story. There are three reasons that it's not the narrator's fault doodle died. The storey tells that he was running so how is it the narrator's. The first reason is that he didn't kill him at all. He was just having fun not really trying to kill doodle. He didn't mean for him to die. He didn't remember that if he did things that could make his heart collapse, I assume because he said to run. But in other words he didn't kill him. The second reason is because when he was a kid he wanted to smother his brother because he couldn't do anything. He wanted a brother that could go outside with him and go to the pond. But then his brother talked then crawled the started
to walk. Then he didn't do anything to him. It might seem like he killed his brother but he actually cared for his brother. Im sure he didn't want him dead. So the way they made it seem in the story is that his brother could not do things so he wanted to kill him.So doodles brother didnt want to kill him after he could do things. But The thought of him trying to kill doodle is terrifying cause you thinking of killing your brother is kinda insane. Unless he's trying to kill you but that's not what's going on in this story. The sum up is that doodle died because of natural causes of his disease. He ran and possibly forgot he was weak. If you look at it in a different perspective he might have killed doodle. Because we don't know the entire story we will not find out till then.See he could have forced doodle to run and maybe he knew what running could do to doodle so he said to run and doodle ran because it was his older brother. Maby doodle didn't know he was going to die.
In “The Scarlet Ibis," Doodle had the same right to live as his family did. I believe that even though Doodle was destined to die” he should have been able to live the short life he had.
Doodle always learned new sports but never played on any teams. Simon was apart of a team, a baseball team. He didn't play much. When he did his coaches made him get hit by the ball so he would make it to the base each time. Doodle knew that he could die at any time that's why he was so cautious. So when Doodle was tired he would always say something because he was being alert about his harsh movements. Simon lived a normal life so he never worried about it. He has always wanted to become a hero, he would tell everyone about it but no one believed him. Though they have similar heart conditions they died very different deaths. Even Simon's death was more active than Doodles. He was saving other kids on a bus that had crashed into a lake. At that time the when the bus was in the lake it was wintertime and the water was freezing. And Simons little body couldn’t handle it. He had died of that, but also died of being a hero. Doodle died because he was being over exerted from rowing. His brother pushed him too hard and his body couldn't take all of the work. His brother left his because there was a storm occurring. He was yelling at Doodle and telling him that he would be fine. As Brother was running home he realized when he was calling Doodle there was no

In conclusion, Brother shows his self-interest in how he treats his younger brother. He treats his younger brother, Doodle, as something to ‘fix’ and he cannot accept his brother as he is. When Doodle finally learns to walk, Brother’s selfish need for a more ‘ideal’ little brother is not satisfied for long. Soon he demands a little brother who can run, jump, climb, swim, swing on vines, and row a boat. When he gives Doodle lessons for these activities, he does not do so for concern about Doodle wanting to be able to do them, but because he wants Doodle to be able to be a ‘normal’ brother.
In the story, the narrator's pride sometimes takes him over and eventually kills his brother Doodle. At the end of the story, the narrator " as I [He] lay sheltering my fallen scarlet ibis from the heresy of rain" (176).

Although the narrator of the story contributes to Doodle's death, the narrator actually enhanced Doodle's short life helping him live more than he helps him die. Additionally the narrator always knows that Doodle can act more like a normal boy, than as a sick person that was about to die. In "Scarlet Ibis" the narrator is not responsible for Doodles death.
Doodle’s health is not good and you can see that in this piece of text. (Topic Sentence) The author writes, “He didn’t answer so I placed my hand on his forehead and lifted his head. Limply, he fell backwards onto the Earth. He had been bleeding from his mouth, and his neck and the front of his shirt was stained brilliant red.”(172)(Textual support- 5). Doodle is harmed and it’s because his brother’s pride got in the way of his health and well being. (Commentary)

Months after that, doodle was able to stand, and all that other stuff. I would explain and go into detail but I have already enough. Doodle and him go down to the swamp after it was all good and done. It starts to rain pretty
While there are many more significant literary devices throughout the short story, symbolism and foreshadowing are the most prevalent. These devices enhance the story, because they keep the readers attention. Symbolism and foreshadowing help the reader better understand the characters and how the brother’s actions lead to the death of Doodle.
