Response for Monday: Klass article

In Klass's article, she uses two supporting characters to help her tell her story: her mother (an outsider) and "Mr. Eponym" (a newbie insider). What might be the use of these two characters? How do they aid in Klass telling her experience? How might they relate to the reader of the essay? In other words, what is the use of presenting characters both from outside and inside the discourse community (why not just talk about characters from the inside only)?
