Doe Season

During childhood children are usually worry free and not only that but the woods made Andy feel worry free because "they were the same woods, for miles and miles." (456). The ocean was different, it made her think of things dying, alost like she was afread of it. It is the same with going from childhood to adulthood, Andy is worry free during childhood but when adulthood comes she is scared. The woods made her feel safe until she realized what could happen in the woods such as when the deer died and her dad cut into it, she ran away. In reality, many children going into adulthood want to run away too. At a point they realize what it takes to be an adult. Andy thought she could handle the woods and she wanted to be a boy and be called Andy (463) but in the end the woods weren't what she thought and that is when she was ready to be an adult and be called Andrea now. Many people make this transition. The transition doesn't usually happen because of a situation like this but the woods changed Andy into a different person, to be more of an adult or a lady.
