The Singermann's children are of the passive kin d. None of them has any desires to accomplish great things , although as might be expected in a family of eight, each one is somewhat different. The ups and downs in their lives can be attributed solely to the miserable environmen t in which they live, for the American atmosphere molds the younger generation, whether it is Jewish or Gentile. They lack the moral courage that their parents possess , and misunder sta nding them because they have no knowl edge of the English language, they pay no heed to their moral teaching s. Their parents appear to them funny and their advice worthless. They inherit the faults of their parents but none of their virtues. We see a tragic picture of the misdeeds -of their children. Their only daughter 's first marriage is not according to the laws of Moses. One of their sons marries a Gentile woman of disreputable fame, one of their daughters-in-law, a Jewess, becomes a believer in Christian Science , and another of their sons becomes a prize -fighter. This can all be easily traced to the environment and to the lack of cultural and social uplifting that is so necessary in the industrialized world of today .
