Us and Them by David Sedaris

The story "Us and Them" was very weird to me. I understood the story but did not understand the meaning of it. It was perfectly fine that the Tomkeys did not have a TV but weird that they dont because pretty much everybody in the U.S does have one. It was kinda funny to me that the little boy keep eating all the chocolate, but it was bad for him and gave him head aches. The mom seemed kinda dumb because she keep asking what kind of trailer that the boat was on. This was my thoughts on "Us and Them".
