However, as the story continues, she starts to appreciate what she has. Even though she does not have as much as some of her friends or the kids she is in school with she begins to accept what she does have. She begins to have a positive outlook on life and certain events have made her appreciate what she has rather than focus on what she does not have.

Doria is forced to wear clothes from places like Goodwill for as cheap as possible because of the lack of money her mother makes. People would make fun of her at school and always laugh about what she wears. She never gets upset with her mother because she knows her mom tries the best she can to provide for her. .
