The Tree Who Set Healthy Boundaries : an alternate ending for Shel Silversteinâs The Giving Tree by Topher Payne đŻđłâ€ïž
https://www.topherpayne.com/giving-tree?
Iâd always hated The Giving Tree as a kid, but I never realized how much I needed this alternate ending until just now.
Iâm sorry this version is bad and youâre all being very childish about analysing it. Shel Silversteinâs children stories are not happy. They arenât meant to be happy. Not only does this version completely butcher the tone, it erases what makes Silversteinâs stories stand out to children. At the end of The Giving Tree there is no happy ending. Thereâs no legacy. Thereâs no happily ever after. There is a sad, tired old man sitting on a tree stump. The story flatly interjects âAnd the tree was happy.â at every juncture. The point of The Giving Tree is that at the end none of it mattered. The boy denied the tree asking him to do the thing that made him happy as a child. He does this a few times, in favor of money, and a family. The tree gives him a means to these things, but they ultimately donât make him happy. The boy returns sad the third time. He wishes to escape. He takes the part of the trunk with the heart he carved for him and his lover but leaves the heart he carved of him and the tree. The final time he is only tired. Heâs not happy. He canât even do the things that did make him happy. Thereâs just an old, tired man, and a tree stump. Itâs sad. It hurts a bit, for a lot of reasons.
Shel Silversteinâs books have been banned on libraries for âpromotingâ the disrespect of authority, suicide, disobeying parents, death, violence, etc. And yet children love to read these stories. Because they fascinate kids. Just because a story did not make you feel good does not mean it needs to be rewritten. Just because the impact it had wasnât a pleasant experience doesnât lessen the significance of the story. This rewritten version completely undoes what makes Silversteinâs stories special and fascinating to children. It turns them into an average, almost fairy tale like story of a life, money, a family, descendants. It turns a melancholy finality into an overdone happily ever after. This rewritten version is indistinguishable from hundreds of other childrenâs stories. Silverstein himself commented that children are told stories about happiness that make them question where this âhappinessâ is and why they donât have it. I would urge any adult to evaluate why this story makes you so much more uncomfortable now. Why does it hurt more? Why does it make you want to rewrite it? Erase it? Please confront the way the original story makes you feel rather than take refuge in a frankly poor rewrite. Stories exist to make you feel something. Donât ignore that.
Ah yes. The good old âreverse uno cardâ.

âThe average prison sentence of men who kill their women partners is 2 to 6 years. Women who kill their male partners are sentenced on average to 15 years. This is despite the fact that 86% of female offenders kill in self-defense, while males are most likely to kill out of possessiveness (82%), abuse (75%) and during arguments (63%). Women are eight times more likely than men to be killed by an intimate partner.â

OP first posted this in 2018 for context. what an on point prediction
Todayâs Google doodle is dedicated to Israel KamakawiwoÊ»ole on what would have been his 63rd birthday. Most people only know him from his rendition of âSomewhere Over the Rainbow,â and are unaware that the majority of his songs were sung in Hawaiian and were highly political. He resented Hawaiiâs status as a tourist colony and the treatment of native Hawaiians as second class citizens, often stating the case for Hawaiian sovereignty and independence directly in his lyrics.
