*First, look at the topic they want you to write about (FOR THIS ONE PARENT-CHILD RELATIONSHIPS): so as you read, think about how the literature relates to this topic.
*For each piece of literature, make some sort of graphic organizer to write down the main points that relate to the topic
*Compare the two lists and see what they have in common
*Decide on a CONTROLLING IDEA THESIS STATEMENT-an idea that can show what BOTH pieces show (have in common)about the given topic
*Decide on literary elements or techniques that help the author show this to be true
(similar to critical lens in the fact that at this point you will give textual examples to prove your thesis, and use lit. terms to prove your thesis)

Parents often have a hard time dealing with their children as they get older. These relationships are complicated,but parents have to let their children go and live their own lives using the guidance they have given them.
In both "A Private Talk with Holly" by Felsen and "A Father Sees his Son Nearing Manhood" by Carl Sandburg, both parents are having a difficult time deciding about what advice to give their children and letting them go out into the world alone.
