Eveline

Question 7
I believe Eveline is a sympathetic character. Her mother had passed away and Eveline had promised her mother she would take care of her family. Her two of her siblings were dead and the others have moved away. She feels obligated to stay with her father though she fears him. She is afraid he may abuse her because he had abused her brothers. She was seeing a sailor but her father did not approve so they had to meet in secret. She does not go to live with the sailor. She decides to stay with her father. She is a sympathetic character because she does not choose to go with Frank. She stays behind.
