Friendship brings out the best traits, such as being helpful and protective of one another.

Let's hear some themes that aren't about friendship. Any other ideas in this chapter?

How about instead of the word, "Men" you put people.
People should look after one another and expect nothing in return.

Slash that the idea of freedom and being confined by Curley

who is being confined by curley and how is this the theme for chapter 2?

hmm, Curley isn't poor nor does he do work, yet he's still cruel.

I think the theme is that desire creates tension between the character and the character's environment

keep your word despite the difficulties that are encountered
-EX: George protects Lennie even though he constantly gets into dangerous situations.

People have the nature to protect those who are weak and vulnerable. George protecting Lennie shows the truth behind this theme.

I think the theme is having to face reality. George and Lennie have to face living conditions and people that they are not going to get along with.

How do you think that Slim and his puppies affect the theme?

Care is needed in relationships... George and lennie
lennie and the pup

I think the theme for chapter 2 is to tolerate.
George and Lennie must tolerate Curley's attitude because they know its better to tolerate his attitude than to go against him.

Power gives men the authority to judge for others.

How about:
"power corrupts"?
Perhaps if Curley's father wasn't Mr. Boss Man, he'd be a bit more reserved or even shy? And he wouldn't have the guts to go and bug people bigger than him?

slim's pups affect the theme because lennie just says George after Slim talks about the pups, and George knows he wants one.

Tread lightly in new territory.

It think the theme for chapter two is:
Being cautious and distrustful can be advantageous
or something like that.
Since george warns lennie about keeping away from curley and his wife, and even the boss questioned george what he was "trying to put over".

I think the theme is there is no room or tolerance for the weak.
Because the mom dog couldn't feed all the puppies, so slim drowned some of them.

I think the theme for chapter 2 is reality in life
you have to work with people you don't like. just like how Lennie and George have to deal with curely.

The theme for chapter 2 is life because life is hard for lennie and george, they deal with all these problems and hardships in chapter 2.

I think that the theme of chapter 2 is that friends must look after each other. Doing this can have benefits for both of them by not getting them/themselves into trouble.

theme: tolerating people doesn't mean weakness, it means strength and the ability to handle people's ignorance.

The theme that I chose for chapter 2 was a great friendship goes through both thick and thin.

I believe the theme of chapter two is that people act as an obstacle and the point is to find someone who has your back and to protect you.

Stand up for one another , through thick and thin.

For all you last minute people: The weak are only tolerated by few. like how slim doesn't tolerate the extra puppies, yet George tolerates being with Lennie.
