If Victor would have welcomed his creation he wouldn't have turned into this creature that we all know as this evil villain within the story. All the creature knew about in his time on Earth was this role of survival. Survival was his first and last instinct. This creature didn't have the advantage of being a baby then becoming a teenager then becoming an adult due to the act that he had no mother to begin with. If he was pampered in his earlier years and knew this idea of love, he wouldn’t be a “creature” in a sense. He would have more than 5 senses. But instead he was abandoned in the earlier parts of his life so he had to adjust to this role of surviving rather than having someone else focus on surviving for him. In the book the creature wants Victor to know where he’s coming from in this situation. He wants Victor to accept him for who he is and what he had to do. Victor would have to face problems that were more internal than external. He would have to worry about what people thought of him. He would have had to worry about what people thought of the creature Victor created. Would Victor be ashamed with walking around with a creature such as the one he has created? I think that due to the fact that he abandoned this creature, he became the creature that we all fear due to his obstacles in his lifetime.
