Holden develops this sense that he is supposed to be a protector of innocent young people. His imagined destiny as a catcher in the rye is juxtaposed by his true impact on his little sister.

She seems wise beyond her years but we are taking Holden's view on this and perhaps she is overwhelmed by what goes on around her.
