Analysis Of The Babies In Cameron Age

90 Words1 Page

Can you imagine how you might feel if you were happily married, and your partner suddenly disappeared for a week or two, and then reappeared without explanation, expecting to carry on as if nothing had happened? I think this is exactly what Cameron felt. The babies in Cameron age can recognize their parents as familiar and safe; but still too young to understand the concept of time and what has happened and why. Moreover, they begin to fear strangers. Therefore, Cameron’s fears about missing (losing) her mother is very understandable.
