In Huckleberry Finn I have seen dual nature, finn seems to want to hang out with his friends, rob and smoke, though at the same time he also wants to have a normal family like his other friends. At the beginning of the story, Finn is setting up a crew to steal from people and one promise they make is if someone snitches they would pay with one of their family members and everyone agrees except they don't include finn because he doesn't have any family members that he really cares about. Though at the end they do include him and, they would decide if he snitched then they would kill the lady, that was taking care of him. Finn seemed to be bothered by the fact that he didn't have any family members that meant something to him and much less, was when all his friends had some.Though I see that Finn makes his decisions and actions based on his friends, like stealing and he will keep on doing it if theres no one to put him into the right place, as I seen usually kids who misbehave in school don't have much attention from their parents, so they go somewhere else where they will attract attention. Though finn does seem to want a family at the same time you can tell he also wants to be independent, when he is trapped with his dad at the woods he informs us that he will escape from his dad, but at the same time he will not go back with the widow. I could tell that Huck decides that at he maybe wants to be alone , due to the lack of attention he is getting. From viewing my friends who don't really get attention, they tend to drop out of school and start to live on their own, so I can see a similar trend in Finn where he wants to be alone, and start to live by himself.
