The Similarities and Differences Between Junior and Rowdy

There are many similarities and differences between Junior and Rowdy, but I think that the differences outweigh the similarities. One similarity is that they both deal with racism and problems like that on the reservation almost every day. On the other hand, Rowdy is very tough and strong, but Junior is basically the opposite, weak. Junior and Rowdy's parents are both drunks, however Rowdy's parents, specifically his dad, beats him when he is drunk. Rowdy's life is also very hard, besides the poverty that Junior and the rest of the reservation face, he gets made fun of, and since he gets made fun of he bullies people, he fights people a lot, and he is less intelligent, so he really only has Junior and his strength. This is why he gets so angry and punches Junior in the face when he tells him that  he is leaving the reservation." I was the kind of idiot that got punched hard in the face by his best friend." That shows that Rowdy was really angry, to go to the length of punching his best friend in the face.
