The prodigal son is a prime example of everyday life. The father gave his son an efficient amount of money and he wasted it on riotous living. The son found himself in a state of need and dependability when he no longer had anything. Sometimes it is not the parent's fault in result of the child. A parent can do all that they possibly can to rear and provide for their child(ren), but the child will always choose their own path and sometimes make costly decisions. In this case, the father still accepted his son with open arms despite of his careless decisions.
My favorite tale from the Canterbury Tales was the Miller's tale. The Miller's tale was very humorous. What made it even funnier was that he was drunk. The humor made the tale not seem boring and dreadful to read. I felt like I got through this tale the fastest because of the humor, it was easy to follow, and simply the best tale. I did not care for the other tales as much due to them not being as funny or interesting. Therefore, I dread reading them and did not have as good as an understanding as I did with the Miller's tale.
