Two-Bit: Has a shitty father, constantly working mother, lost two of his friends tragically, and a little sister to take care of. Is upbeat, happy, and loyal.
Ponyboy: Parents died in a car wreck, has an overbearing brother, lost two of his best friends tragically, and is treated poorly by a girl he really liked. Is intelligent and dreams of a better world.
Sodapop: Lost his parents in a car wreck, tragically lost two of his friends, had a girl he was absolutely devoted to leave him and not even take his letters, and is trapped between two constantly bickering brothers. Is kind, happy, and loyal. Stays away from alcohol because he's just happy with the joy of living.
Darry: Lost both his parents, had to give up his football career and college, works two jobs, barely has free time, lost two of his friends tragically, and had to grow up way to fast. Is protective over the gang and loyal to a fault despite his downfalls. Even after screwing up he TRIES.
Dallas: Grew up on the rough streets of new york, probably has seen terrible things, his father is awful, and his mother, for all appearances, isnt even around. He's secretly loyal and goes clear out of his way to shelter two of his best friends for getting caught up in a 'murder rap'.
Johnny: Has constantly fighting parents, is physically abused by his father, has a drunk mother who verbally abuses him, litterally sleeps in the cold under newspapers in a vacant lot just to escape, and was brutally beaten to an inch of his life. Is soft spoken, cares about others, and dies saving children's lives from a fire.
Steve: Is kicked out of his father's house every other night, his mother, from all appearances, doesnt even seem to be around, and he lost two of his friends tragically. Is cocky and upbeat, loves sweets, and lives life fully.
The best life lesson of the Outsiders is that you can be a good person even with a horrible life.
