At the beginning of South Park Stan Marsh one of the 4 main little boys main characters. At the beginning of the show, Stan describes his dream of starting a family with a girl named Wendy. Now in the show, this does end up happening for a couple of seasons, and during this time the feelings that Wendy has faded and she dumps Stan. This gets Stan down and depressed and his friends lift him back up to his old self. Stan later on then has to deal with moving further away. Instead of this getting him down and isolating himself he takes this opportunity to grow closer to his friends and builds a stronger bond keeping in more contact with them. At the current moment in the show, I think that this describes his American dream as an adolescent of being able to be around his friends and not be isolated.
