Of Mice and Men #1

1. I think Linnie is so dependent of George is because he needs somebody to lead him. I also think he needs somebody he can look up to like a dad. I think this because George always calls Lennie a bastard, so Lennie probably doesn't have a dad. Since Lennie doesn't have a dad, he uses George as a father figure.


2. I think George still keeps Lennie around because he knows George needs somebody to look up to and follow like a dad. George probably chooses the life with Lennie instead of a pretty good life, is because he knows Lennie would be hopeless without him. And with keeping Lennie around is like keeping a child around.
