rule of the bone ch 3

Chapter 3 was weird... Didn't any sense to me. Why would Chappie think Buster was Canadian? Chappie says all these characteristics about Canadians and how his stepfather is a perfect example of a Canadian, yet when he compares Buster to his stepfather they aren't simlar at all. The story sounds like it was made-up to me. To have names like Buster and Froggy the Gremlin... sounds childish to me. Since Chappie tends to over react to situations, I'm guessing that the little girl was the Canadian's daughter just getting lunch. The security guard and his stepfather both thrive off of embarressing Chappie, they go out of their way to lower Chappie's self esteem. When in reality the security guard used Chappie for weed and the stepfather uses Chappie for his mom.

40 percent of those who started drinking at age 13 or younger developed alcohol dependence later in life. Ten percent of teens who began drinking after the age of 17 developed dependence.

Teens that drink are 50 times more likely to use cocaine than teens who never consume alcohol.
20 percent of 8th graders report that they have tried marijuana.
