What’s the difference between a “Man” and a “Boy”? (Tuesday)

Today, in AP LIT we read more of the play “Fences”. We were asked what is the difference between a man and a boy. Early on in the play Lyons asked his father, Troy, for $10. Then, Bono and Troy acknowledged Lyons as a “boy” even though he is 34 years old. They acknowledged him as boy because he has no job, but refers to himself as a musician. We came to a consensus that a “Man” should have a job/career, responsibilities, and be financially stable.
