OK, I have this 4-day, inclass assignment on King Lear play. Ive already chosen a topic "We fail in compassion when we confuse love with power
". Now... I need some help with my thesis, I started with "The practice of combining love and power in the governance of the family and interpersonal relationships leads to..." and thats it, I have no idea how to finish it. I desperately need some help :(

"The practice of combining love and power in the governance of the family and interpersonal relationships leads to..."
the confusion of morals and family role.
lies and deciet - talk about the crap that was speeled by regan and goneril.
betrayl, filial ingratitue.
talk about the assumed role reversal of lear and his daughters. goneril and regan being nasty and ungrateful once they got their hands on his assets. passing the buck when they didnt want to take him into either home to visit, etc, esp. when he wanted accompanied by his knights.
