Have you ever been presented with a decision that would affect many lives? In the book, Little Britches, Ralph’s parents were faced with this very decision! Ralph’s family should have left after they saw the house for three reasons. They had a rough start, they could very easily die, and It would not set the kids up for a good future.

The first reason Ralph's family should have left after they saw the house is that they had a rough start. They had been deceived, they would have to restore it and it would be hard. And they had a better chance in the city.

The second reason Ralph's family should have left after they saw the house is that they could very easily die. There was a very small margin of error out west. One basic mistake could mean the difference between life and death. They also did not have experience. They had spent most of their life living out in the city, and now they were making an abrupt switch. Because of this, they did not know what new set of challenges they would be faced with, and there were many new issues they did not have experience on and did not know how to handle them.

The third and final reason Ralph's family should have left after they saw the house is that it would not set the kids up for a great future. Kids need safety. The children could not develop social skills. And there were no resources for good education out west.

Ralph's family should have left after they saw the house because They had a rough start, they could very easily die and it would not set the kids up for a good education. This matters to those in authority because their choices affect others.
