Who really deserves sympathy???

Who really deserves everyone's sympathy....the monster or Victor?

I personally think that the monster is the one who completely needs the sympathy and compassion. He was the one who was basically dropped in this earth with no one to love or care for him or show how humans act. If I were him I would have been pretty terrified of everybody and the way everything works. And I cant possibly imagine what it was like to be alone in the world trying to figure out how to communicate and act with everyone. It would be like being dropped onto another planet and left to fend for yourself. I think the monster was actually pretty clever in spying on the family in the cottage and learning how to speak from them and about fire and everything.
