I do not think that Ivans family would have regretted pushing him to succeed. I think that Ivans grandmother and father were verry proud that Ivan went to college and escaped the hard life of homesteading, because most parents want to see their children have a better life than they had. The American dream caused the doig family to move west and try to start a better life. Though they might have enjoyed the life on the raches better than in the city it was harder and challenging, and they didnt do so well. what happened to the Doig family relates to most homesteader families because most of the time the parents had trouble getting started or starting their new life, but their children did better than they did.
