What I think of Zeitoun

I believe Zeitoun was selfish when it came to his family. While his Wife was trying to get him to leave the area, he refused putting his family last. In the book "Zeitoun" Edggers talk about Zeitoun's and his families experiences during hurricane Katrina. Zeitoun is a stubborn man who disregard what his wife was telling him by saying "this is not the storm for us"(Eggers 22). In other words he was saying the storm is not coming their way and nothing is going to happen. I think he should have left despite what he thought would or wouldn't happen for his wife and kids sake.
