Catcher in the Rye- Chapter 19

While Holden is at the bar, waiting for Carl, he thinks about his old school, Whooton. Carl used to tell all the boys about sex. Holden thinks Carl is amusing but fake. When Carl finally get there, Holden starts asking him questions about sex. Carl refuses to have that kind of discussion and suggests a psychoanalysis. Holden then thinks about Carl' father because he was a psychoanalyst. When Holden starts joking around about a father analyzing his son, Carl says he has to leave, so Holden is alone again.

Holden seems very immature. Like Carl said, he needs to grow up. he cant act 14 for the rest of his life.
