"A Raisin in the Sun" impression

After beginning the play "A Raisin in the Sun" by Lorraine Handsberry, I get the impression that the play will be centered around the check that Mama will soon receive. The play started out with the Younger family fighting the whole morning which makes me think the family has many issues regarding their living situation which is what Walter mainly complains about. The characters in this play seem to be very caring towards each other but want change in their lives. Mama, the most caring character thus far seems to be the head of the house hold by taking charge and caring about everyone. With the check she will receive, it is very likely she will share it with everybody since we get the impression she is very compassionate and caring and is looking out for the best in her family. I believe this check will cause many conflicts through out the novel since everybody has a different view of how it will be spent. It may even cause the family to fall apart from all the conflicts. Each character in the play has a very strong personality which I believe will develop as the play progresses.
