was the parent that spoiled Pip, and as a result, because all of Pip's money was given to him and he didn't have to work for it, he did not learn the true value of the money and the good moral values that came with working hard for the money. Once Herbert and Pip decide that Pip will will not use Magwitch's money, Pip is stuck in a very odd predicament. He now has no money whatsoever; he has no skills to make money with, and no land to get money from. Nor does he have anyone to turn to because he will not be able to live in London if he is not a gentleman, nor will he be able to live with Joe and Biddy because of how harshly he has treated them over the years. In addition, he cannot go with Mrs. Havisham because the fact that Magwitch was the benefactor means that she did not mean for Pip and Estella to be married after all. The situation that Pip is in right now is caused all because of his low ethics. He will not take the money because he thinks that he is better than Magwitch. Also, he though that he was better that Joe and Biddy, so he stopped communicating and visiting them. What will Pip do?

Where does Pip turn to now?
Magwitch continues to live with Pip for several days, with each day causing Pip to dislike him more. When Herbert comes back, Pip asks him about what to do with his predicament. They decide that it would be best that Pip not use Magwitch's money. This shows Pip's arrogance has become of an extreme extent, and even though Magwitch's money is just as good as anyone else's money, Pip thinks that it is tainted or not good anymore because Magwitch is not a gentleman himself, and a convict. The situation that Pip is in is very ironic as Magwitch wanted to do good for Pip by giving him money and making a gentleman, but the money has corrupted Pip and turned him into a much worse person; so by intending to do good for Pip, Magwitch actually did bad for him. He was in the position that many parents are in: they want to give their children whatever their children want to make them happy, but at the same time, they do not want to spoil their cihldren by giving them too much. Magwitch was the parent that spoiled Pip, and as a result, because all of Pip's money was given to him and he didn't have to work for it, he did not learn the true value of the money and the good moral values that came with working hard for the money. Once Herbert and Pip decide that Pip will will not use Magwitch's money, Pip is stuck in a very odd predicament. He now has no money whatsoever; he has no skills to make money with, and no land to get money from. Nor does he have anyone to turn to because he will not be able to live in London if he is not a gentleman, nor will he be able to live with Joe and Biddy because of how harshly he has treated them over the years. In addition, he cannot go with Mrs. Havisham because the fact that Magwitch was the benefactor means that she did not mean for Pip and Estella to be married after all. The situation that Pip is in right now is caused all because of his low ethics. He will not take the money because he thinks that he is better than Magwitch. Also, he though that he was better that Joe and Biddy, so he stopped communicating and visiting them. What will Pip do?
