The Kite Runner Argument

The argument that the author was this book was that we can't go through life with unsolved problems in our past happily. Amir watched as his friend ,Hassan, was raped but didn't say or do nothing to help him after that incident. His only attempt to help the situation was selfish because it caused Hassan and his father to leave their house. Amir couldn't bare to look at Hassan anymore with the guilt he has so his solution for this was for them not to see each other anymore. Amir's guilt eventually lessened but still lived on in his mind. Amir went through his life feeling this guilt and was never fully happy with himself because he never had a real solution to the problem he faced. 
The author is trying to tell us that we must not run fearfully away from our problems, but confront them and make a real solution. The argument presented is on how society today doesn't confront their problems and decide to leave them the way they are; unsolved. the author also argues that society should face their difficult situations and solve them once and for all so we are not left with that guilt for the rest of our lives.
