Huck's Differences Between Him Being Alone and With Other People

Huck, as any child, is dependent on the Widow, Pap, and peers in his community.  But when he is off on his own in the lonely island's along the river, he has to be more independent and rely not on other's but more on himself.  Huck relies and learns from everyone in his community, although sometimes his immaturity can take over and make him seem like he doesn't care. For example, when Huck started attending school, he pretended like he didn't like it.  But eventually he started to like it.  That is also an example of his adaptability, which comes in handy when he is alone on the island.  His adaptability in all situations is one thing that stays consistent throughout Huck's adventure.  When he is alone, however, he thinks his situations a little bit more thoroughly.  For example, when he was leaving the trace he thought about where the people would think he is.  But when he is living with the Widow, he doesn't think things through as much.  For example when Miss Watson is teaching him spelling, Huck says bad things without thinking about them which gets him into trouble.
