Throughout their development, children are influenced by numerous experiences. As they are growing, their growth will include both physical and emotional development. Factors such as their family, education as well as their entourage will play a big role in that development. Other factors include the nature of the environment they are exposed to, whether it is facilitative or not. But what is certain is that the most important role in a child’s development will be played by the family. Three movie, being the lion king, finding Nemo and Pinocchio, ranging respectively from a loving healthy family to an over protective family to a complete absence of family will perfectly illustrate how a family’s bond affects the child’s way of interacting with the world.
First of all, the movie Finding Nemo”, tells the tale of a clownfish, Marlin, whose wife died and eggs eaten following a tragic accident where a barracuda attacked them during his absence . The only survivor of the attack was his child, Nemo. Following this event, Marlin transforms to become an excessively over protective father smothering his son. Years later, on a normal day, as nemo was swimming closely to the

Opposite to this movie lies the movie Pinocchio illustrating a complete absence of family and the consequences it imposes on the child’s development. This movie starts with a worker, geppetto making a wish as a shooting star is passing. Geppetto asks for his most recent work, Pinocchio, a wooden toy to come to live.the same night, the hard worker is granted his wish by the blue fairy as Pinocchio comes to live accompanied by a cricket, called jimmy, who will be Pinocchio 's conscience. Unfortunately, the innocent gullible Pinocchio is fooled by a sneaky con man called John. Pinocchio is then taken to the pleasure
After telling his father, “Go on, go! I don’t want you to stay - I hate you and I hope you never come back!” he feels guilty but pushes the feeling away. When he finds out that his father may have died in a landslide in Bougainville, regret swallows him.
Each parent’s shortcomings then gets projected and magnified through the sons. The movie is about conflicts; between the couple, the child and the parent, the intellectual and philistine, identity one manufactures and one’s true self. The parents are so preoccupied with their problems that the children are left lost. It is interesting how they take their children and pit them against one another many times without realization. Bernard Berkman is a novelist whose career has gone into a slow decline and is now reduced to teaching.
Emily Montes de Oca Professor Donaldson SPC 3230 June 14, 2016 Rhetorical Analysis: Finding Nemo Disney movies are really well known for teaching kids valuable life lessons in a way that they could understand. Finding Nemo teaches the importance of family and how to face your fears for those that you love. The movie focuses on two fish, Marlin and Dory trying to find Marlins lost son Nemo after fishermen took him. Since Nemo is the only family Marlin has he is very protective over him, and before he was born he grabbed on to, what was only just an egg at the time and said, “I will never let anything happen to you”.
While on a field trip, Nemo and his friends wander off on their own towards an anchored boat. Meanwhile, they start to dare each other to touch this boat. Although Nemo is warned by his father, he did not stop. Suddenly, a diver appears; he traps
Unfortunately the family was faced with a barracuda attack in which Coral and all but one of the eggs died. Marlin his one surviving egg Nemo live a cautious life never wanting to leave the reef and enter the open ocean. One day Nemo swims out to touch the “butt” of a boat in the open ocean. He is later captured by a scuba diver making Nemo become our damsel in distress.
I got from the JotH, “Finding Nemo” was about Marlin learning to let Nemo grow up, and accept his coming of age. Marlin uses help from a fish with short term memory loss(Dory). He learns that he needs to “Loosen up” when it comes to his son. “The call to adventure” was present at the very
Marlin was very protective of Nemo because of Nemo’s underdeveloped fin. Nemo’s physical disability and growing up without a mother caused some degree of overprotectiveness from Marlin. Marlin did not face a refusal or reluctance to find Nemo. In fact he was the opposite. Since Nemo was Marlin’s only son, Marlin went after him immediately.
Several themes are demonstrated in the course of lifespan development. Although each child develops individually, common themes can be seen throughout the development. The following are explanations of four universal themes of human development, including the continuity-discontinuity issue, nature versus nurture, the active-passive issue, and the development across domains issue, and how my personal experiences relate to the understanding of each theme. Early Development is Related to Later Development but Not Perfectly Shaffer and Kipp (2010) describe a pervasive theme in lifespan development, in which our early development during infancy and childhood correlates to how we later develop as adults, known as the continuity-discontinuity issue.
The resemblances of his father’s existence reversed. The father begins work and receives a complete renewal, as the leader of the family. The mother finds her own sense of self without the worry and doubt. While his sister matures into woman all while molting her innocence and naivety. While the initial metamorphosis is repulsive to his father who literally tries to thrust his son back into the room after the discovery, and the confusion of his mother, it is Grete who takes on the motherly role for her older brother.
Having the right knowledge, skills and experience in understanding how children or young people develop are very important tools for early years practitioners. We must put to mind that each child born into this world is unique. Children are born with different characters, their personalities and behaviours are formed and influenced by a variety of factors. These factors may affect their ways of interacting with the environment and community or setting in which they live in.
However, each child is an individual and his/her physical, emotional, social development is either boosted or restricted by personal factors like genetic health or parentsâ€TM health etc.; and external factors such as the environment they grow up with. All factors have some kind of impact on a growing child and tend to affect all areas of development, not just one. Personal factor Personal factor influence childrenâ€TMs development in many areas. It consist health status, disability, sensory impairment and learning difficulties etc.. Childrenâ€TMs health is really important. Health issues can be genetical which influence how the brain works, e.g. Downâ€TMs syndrome which have impairment of cognitive ability and physical growth.
While reading most reviews about kid’s films, most authors state similar opinions that kid’s films are usually produced mostly for the younger generations to enjoy. In this case, she challenges her readers to watch this film because it’s
A child’s development is based on their environment, ones’ cultures and many other factors but, most importantly it is their connection with their caregivers because a parental love is what will help them grow into the person they are to be. In the film Babies, a 2010 French document showed us four newborns through their first year after birth. Since the babies are from different cultures and are from around the world, the film shows how they were raised, the community they lived in and their everyday lives. Two specific babies that were raised completely different would be Marti who is from Tokyo, Japan and Bayar from Bayanchandmani, Mongolia. Mari lives in an urban area and Bayar lives in a rural area.
Children look to their parent’s guidance and development. Parents are the first example and if the family environment is not healthy, the children could be subjected to a lacking strong physical development. “Effective parenting skills are fundamental to child development” (The Chief Public Health Officer 's Report, 2008). Children learn from their environment, if a child’s parent is not in the picture, children will learn from what surrounds them. For example, Genie did not speak because she was never spoken to as a child.
Examples of these factors would be a child’s extended family members, a child’s neighbourhood where they are staying and maybe even the parents of the child’s workplace. These factors in this system can have a negative or a positive influence on the development rate of a child. For example, if a child’s parents lose their job this can become a problem for the child as the parent won’t be able to buy food, and pay rent. This will have a negative effect on the child’s development. Another example would be if a child’s parent gets a raise or a promotion the parent will be able to give the child a better way of living.
