How does Roger’s character develop throughout “Thank You, M’am”?

-Now Roger was starting to change into a respectful and responsible young man because of Mrs. Jones' mother-like hospitality. She welcomed him into her home and told him to “go to the sink” and he hesitated. Jones actions display that Roger is now cared for and that he is now a respectful, responsible boy.

-Roger has likely changed by the end of the short story "Thank You, Ma'm," mostly because of the trust that Mrs. Jones extends to him. He realizes that he does not want to be mistrusted after Mrs. Jones treats him with such concern and kindness, and this is likely the beginning of a new path for Roger.
