Junior's family faces financial hardships from "summary" of The absolutely true diary of a part-time Indian by Sherman Alexie

Junior's family is struggling to make ends meet. They live on the Spokane Indian Reservation, where jobs are scarce and opportunities are limited. With his parents barely able to afford food and other basic necessities, Junior knows that his family is facing financial hardships. Despite their financial struggles, Junior's parents do their best to provide for him and his sister. They work hard to put food on the table and keep a roof over their heads. Junior's father works at the local tire factory, a job that is physically demanding and pays very little. His mother works as a clerk at the tribal office, but her salary is not enough to cover all their expenses. Junior is acutely aware of the financial strain his family is under. He sees his parents worry about paying bills and staying afloat. He knows that they can't afford to buy him new clothes or school supplies. Junior's family's financial situation affects every aspect of his life, from the food he eats to the opportunities he can pursue. Despite the challenges they face, Junior's family remains resilient. They support each other and find ways to make do with what they have. Junior's parents instill in him the value of hard work and perseverance, teaching him to never give up in the face of adversity. The financial hardships that Junior's family faces are a harsh reality of life on the reservation. They serve as a constant reminder of the systemic inequalities and challenges that indigenous communities like theirs face. Junior's family's struggles highlight the resilience and strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
