The Outsiders

Connect

Connecting words are important to understanding the relationship among ideas written in prose: e.g. Ponyboy wanted to do what the older boys in the gang did; however, his oldest brother, Darry, had other ideas.

Question- What is the relationship between the parts of the sentence to be found before and after the word "however"?

Ponyboy wanting more freedom to do things that older boys did is related to Darry trying to protect Ponyboy from making the same mistakes that older boys do.
