1000 Splendid Suns, chapters 42-44 Read (or re-read) chapter 42. Then, in a well-developed 1-2 paragraph response, answer the
following prompt: As Hosseini has shown throughout the novel, mothers are often forced into
difficult relationships with their children in order to do what they think is best. Recall that Nana
tried to stifle Mariam's dreams because she didn't want her to face later disappointment and
that Fariba could only care for Laila at a distance. How do Mariam and Laila face similar
difficulties in their roles as caretakers?
