How do you think Marcus's family felt when his father had his time out at war extended? How do you think the family's dynamic might change when he returns?
I think his family felt crushed, because they had to wait another 3(?) months to see the father. I know I would've felt horrible if my father was gone for most of the year. I think the family dynamics will change greatly, Megan would no longer need her "daddy pillow" because she'd have no reason for it, The Mother would stop her anxiety cleaning and try to quit smoking, and Marcus would be able to stop worrying and finally take a breather.
