A Good Man Is Hard To Find

The short story "A Good Man Is Hard to Find" by Flannery O'Connor can be consider grotesque by the negative events that happen throughout the story. First there are the young kids who are disrespectful to their grandmother. I know if I ever was I would get an eat full of how I was being disrespectful. Being disrespectful to the elderly is a horrible thing to do especially when young kids are doing it and they should know some manners by that age. Another thing that is also negative would be the way the kids fight with each other and that the grandmother pushes it. Now siblings do fight. There is nothing really to stop it. One would think though if a grandma was sitting in between them they would not fight but the grandma eggs them on pretty much. Then the grandma uses the kids to annoy their parents so they can go look for treasure at a house that the grandma wants to see because she used to visit it when she was younger. This leads to the accident. Getting in car accidents is a very bad thing to happen. After they wreck and they see that everyone is okay they flag a car down to ask for help. While they are talking the grandma realizes that one of the men is The Misfit. Now because the grandma notices him and had to open her mouth he has to kill them now. He does it by first by having his two partners take the father and daughter into the forest and has them shoot. All the while the grandma is begging for her life to try and save the family by telling The Misfit that he is a good man he just needs to pray to God for forgiveness. When the two men come back they then take the mother the son and the baby into the forest and shoots them. Then all that is left is the grandma and when touches his face The Misfit then shoots him. The whole story is full of grotesque examples from the kids being disrespectful to the grandma egging the kids and bugging their parents to when they all end up dead.
