In Stolen, the author uses conflict to teach that only you can control and create your own future. For example, the author shows how Ty’s corrupt childhood has influenced his adulthood when she explains, “She and dad were never really together anyway. As soon as I was signed over to Dad, they all packed up overseas and tried to forget about me.” This shows how Ty’s feeling of abandonment at such a young age, has impacted his behavior and attitude towards others. Due to his lack of compassion and love, he doesn’t know how to express his feelings for someone in a reasonable manor. Additionally, being shunned from proper social skills has affected Ty’s state of mind, causing him to feel as if stealing Gemma was infallibly okay on his part. The

Troy?s relationship with his father was one, which produced much tension, and had a strong influence on Troy?s relationships with his loved ones as an adult. He had very little respect for his father because his father did not, in Troy?s mind, make his family a priority. At an early age, Troy?s father beat him ?like there was no tomorrow? because he caught Troy getting ?cozy? with a girl (549; I,4). Troy said that ?right there is where [he became] a man? (549; I,4). It was at that moment that Troy made the decision to free himself from his father?s power. Despite the fact that he did eventually escape his father?s wrath, the struggle with his father?s aggressive behavior and lack of love resulted in a coldness that resided in Troy?s heart toward life and love. His father did not care about his children; children were there to work for the food that he ate first. Troy describes his feelings toward his father by saying, ?Sometimes I wish I hadn?t known my daddy. He ain?t cared nothing about no kids. A kid to him wasn?t nothing. All he wanted was for you to learn how to walk so he could start you to working? (548; I,4). Although Troy had very little respect for his father and vowed to be nothing like him, many of his father?s harsh personality traits show up in his own personality. Despite Troy?s continuous attempts to push himself away from anything he had ever known about his father, the inheritance of such irrational behavior was inevitable because it was all he had ever known. The inheritance of this angry behavior was, in turn, the cause of his damaging relationships with his own family. Just as Troy endured his father?s cruel ways, Troy?s family is left with no choice but to try to learn to live with his similar ways.

Throughout the novella, Teddy matures and finds out how to deal with problems, rather than escaping them. Unlike others, he develops the ability to talk through problems and create more realistic views for himself that allow him to try and resolve his situation, instead of denying it.

Conflict is the hurdle between characters of a story which create worries for the readers about the next plot of that story and which will be resolved in the next plot.

It is scientifically proven that people are affected by how they are treated in their childhood, mainly in the relationship with their parents. Children who have experienced abuse in their childhood tend to reflect that in their lives as adults. Troy Maxson grew up with an abusive father. He did not have a relationship with his mother because she left him and never came back. He basically lived the life of a slave and had to look out for himself.

In the story, I was fighting the nature to be a new person. Everyone is born with unique behaviour and personality. I was born to be aggressive and not care about others, but failing made me rise and cross this behavioural border. In other words, it’s hard to change someone's behaviour, if they born with it. You have to have a high spirit to work hard and be patience to change the behaviour and your character to be a new person.
