More About "She's Come Undone"

As I get farther into the book, "She's Come Undone", I feel sympathy toward Dolores. She must deal with many incidents that a typical thirteen year old would not have to deal with. The fact that no one gives her a break after what had happened to Dolores causes her so much stress, yet no one pays attention to her. I think it is upsetting to see such a young girl suffer so much after the traumatizing incident and dealing with it without help from anyone. She is constantly being told to do things and has trouble sleeping, but her mother and grandmother do not do anything about it. Her mother is also tired of Dolores' behavior but she cannot help that she feels the way she does after what had happened. Now, Dolores must deal and cope with the death of her mother which came from nowhere. I feel sorry for her because she already has trouble understanding what had happened and how to deal with it, but now she must cope with her mother's death and stay strong. Dolores' story is unique and original since no young teen usually goes through this much.
