He thinks that the Senior House is a better choice for the both of them as his mother would be happier there. Despite in actuality, Meursault’s mother did enjoy a blissful before her death, the fact that Meursault shows no emotion towards both his mother and her demise is incongruent to the social trend. His lack of sensitivity is severely chastised by the society in which he lives. The other citizens cannot understand his insensitivity, and more importantly, will not bother. They are merely concerned with the inconsistency that Meursault’s actions pose to the social norm.
Although the boy’s parents’ hesitate to welcome it to their home and state that the lost thing is “filthy” and “might have strange diseases” the boy still provides it a hidden shelter and food to eat. ➢ Shean contrasts the appearance of the creature in size, shape and color with others in the urban environment to demonstrate how people do not belong in society because of their indifferences. This reflects they way in which physical disparities can potentially become barriers to belonging. An example of this would that all the humans in this book are the same; pale skin, straight eyebrows and elongated faces. In comparison other characters and creatures in the book are seen to have odd appearances.
Some people tend to refrain from the truth. Wooden-headedness can happen within family household where the child doesn’t agree with his parents. For example, let’s say a teenage guy wants to go hang out with his friends, but his parents strongly disagree with his decision. One of the teenage boy’s friends is a bad influence and his parents know this for a fact, but his wooden-headedness mentality makes the teenage boy disagree with any facts given to him. When it comes to organizations there is usually a leader or a chief in command of the organization.
The authors of "Father and I" and "Thus I Refute Beelzy" are Par Lagerkvist and John Collier. Parents and adults usually do not believe their children's imagination, they probably will not know that the children would feel so abandoned and depressive. There are some differences and similarities between these two stories, both of them are talking about the relationship between a father and a son. The fathers do not trust their children's imagination. But the difference is that the father has been being so well to his son, he brings him to the river and play with him when he has time in "Father and I".
This result may not be valid as the reason for the type C like behaviour of the Israeli children may be due to the fact that they are raised in a kibbutz where they see no new people, and are always attended too by an adult. This could explain why the children were type C because they would have been petrified with the new environment, new people and lack of care. Another weakness of the strange situation is the ethics of it, both the children, and the parent will at some point feel distressed, and this is a problem for the strange situation as psychological tests cannot psychologically or physically harm their participants. 3) There are several case studies, and research into privation, one case study which shows an extreme case of privation is Genie. Genie was privated from any type of stimulation.
There is not a lot said about his history at home but it is mentioned that he feels the need to impress others due to the fact that he is a ‘late baby’. Cormier never really defines what Raymond means by this but it does influence his actions and journey throughout the story. As the novel progresses we start to see little events of courage that start to change his own personal journey. When Artkin and Miro drugged the children, Raymond had the wit and nerve to hide the candy instead of eating it “…I pretended to sleep, like the others…I thought they’d be mad at me and punish me if I didn't eat the candy…” In his last moments during the book, he wanted nothing more than to go home. When Artkin approaches him about taking a walk outside, Raymond asks Kate if it is all right to go.
This idea can be seen through Atticus Finch extremely well. He grew up in an overly prejudice time, yet all he tries to do is help people, and tries to teach his children to do the same thing. For instance, on page 30, he is trying to teach Scout not to judge people because she didn’t always know the other person view of things, or their side of the story. “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view, until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.” -Atticus Finch. Even with her Father’s prompting she doesn’t seem to understand, as she clearly has prejudice towards people like the Ewells and Cuninghams just for being poor, or different than her.
Throughout the novel, Marner’s personality transforms from that of an entirely isolated, enigmatic man into an open and even admired neighbor. In his earlier days in Raveloe, Marner was not accepted by other members of the community. They had a “half-fearful fascination” (p. 10) about his loom, and its “questionable sound” (p. 10). In general, they didn’t talk to him, and he made no effort to talk to them. However, during the course of this novel, something and someone begin to change Marner.
Eric Severson had to make a decision between the safety of his children over the need of hitchhikers, leaving him feeling torn between responsibilities of family and social needs, he feels some remorse for not being Christ like and helping the hitchhiker, but his family’s safety is primary. Though his decision is not wrong nor right, the majority would probably feel he made the ethically right decision, but in the end this was an easy choice and small choice to make. He may wonder if anyone had stopped to help that hitchhiker, but for many this conflict is negligible, especially for those who do not see the need of the hitchhiker as a responsibility, thus undetectable. “The tearing can be bittersweet” (p. 155). Many people proclaim to want less government and government regulation intrusion in their lives, yet when something goes wrong, such as a housing sub-prime mortgage melt down, people proclaim, “where was the government to protect us?” “Isn’t the government responsible for protecting the citizens?” However, are the executives of those companies
Martin’s relationship to his father is also a little tense; they don’t seem to get along that well. Martin has a long braid in the back and he says that this braid is what gets to the father. Even though he failed three classes and is a bit criminal. Martin and the father don’t know what to talk about either. Martins father work a lot, so I guess they never just talk, because there isn’t time to get to know each other.
