This play written in the 1950s, is a humorous and satirical depiction of the status of the mother in a family.
(i) What are the issues it raises ?
(ii) Do you think it caricatures these issues or do you think that the problems it raises are genuine ? How does the play resolve the issues? Do you agree with the resolution?



Answer -

(i)

As this play depicts the old status of mother that’s why it conveys that in those times
(1) mothers were treated like a slave or we can saw a home appliance just a care latest nothing else.
(2) mother were always take for granted as if they did not have any like or dislike or what would made them happy or sad. In short she was thought to be the worst-part for due best use in household jobs.
 
(ii)
It caricatures the character of Mrs Fitzgerland put not the issues but her char¬acter suits because whatever she enacts that all is for betterment of Mrs. Pearson. The problem raised are genuine because it gives the genuine picture and condition of the family in 50’s.
The play resolves the issues very dramatically as whenever some one in problem he wishes to be some one mightier to face and solve his problem skilfully. The same happened in the play and issues are resolved. I do agree because true realization can only eradicate the civil issues for over.
