He worked very hard all the time as a salesman traveling to get buyers and this allowed him to make new friends but at the same time he was being used and was isolating himself from his family. These people both the mother and the father used it as much as they could and while Gregor served him they had all the luxuries and all the expenses in the house, he even had to pay a debt to his father, where he later finds out that his father still had money saved from what his business had left him, necessary and sufficient to pay off that debt, but it was better to lean on poor Gregor. He was the only one who worked and doubled his back in that family, which means that the only income was his, but if he had set limits and had become strong none of this would have happened to him, but he was so good that he did not mind giving everything for his family. In the end, when Gregor transforms, he realizes that everything he did for his family was useless and they showed him that they exploited him to the fullest while he worked because they saved his energies for when he couldn’t take it anymore. His family had to reduce the expenses of everything but they got a job and got ahead and when they saw that Gregor was only a hindrance for them because he was a strange bug, because he himself, in order not to cause them problems, locked himself in his room without eating until he died loneliness and malnutrition. If Gregor had not been as he was, none of this would have happened to him since everything in life has limits, you can help your relatives but you cannot give everything in abundance or allow them to use you because in the end they get used to it and end up slapping you. People have to be taught the value of things that are fought for and worked on so that they know where they come from and the work it took to obtain it. This man is a firm example that everyone in the home has to fight to contribute and bring something because in the end that person ends up getting tired of doing everything alone, and because a family means union, and in the union is the strength of things.)
