Evidence: 
1. " “Oh, George,” said the wife, “it can’t hurt.” 
“All right — all right, if they’ll just shut up. One minute, mind you, and then off forever.” (Page 14)
2. "They walked down the ball. “I locked the nursery up,” explained the father, “and the children broke back into it during the night. I let them stay..." (Page 11)
3.“Father?” said Peter. “Yes.” Peter looked at his shoes. He never looked at his father any more, nor at his mother. 
“You aren’t going to lock up the nursery for good, are you?” “That all depends.” “On what?” snapped Peter. " (Page 10)
Explanation: All of this evidence shows how indecisive George is. The first piece of evidence shows that even though he wanted to lock up the nursery, he let them go one last time, which is what caused his death. The second piece of evidence shows that he let them stay into the nursery instead of pushing the children out like he should have. And finally, the third piece of evidence shows that he is going to lock up the nursery, but he still can't force himself to do it (Which is why he calls in David).

In the beginning, George enters the nursery to find that it has become Africa instead of the fantasy, fairy tails that the children usually thought of. When his children come home, he has an argument with Peter about the nursery being shut down. He then calls a Psychologist, and is told to shut down the nursery forever. After telling the children, the children throw a tantrum, and are let in for one last second. The children scream for the parents to come and George is eaten by the lions.  This fits the Round characterization well, as George is the main character and is met by conflict that changes him.]]> 2020-11-06 15:51:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jmina11/rs103iglw6zn0l5b/wish/898001055 Trait #2 jmina11 https://padlet.com/jmina11/rs103iglw6zn0l5b/wish/898043355 Trait: Insensitive
Evidence:
1. "Don’t let them switch off the nursery and the house,” he was saying .Go to bed,” he said to the children. They opened their mouths. “You heard me,” he said. They went off to the air closet, where a wind sucked them like brown leaves up the flue to their slumber rooms. " (Page 8)
2. “I wouldn’t let them go to New York.” (Page 9)
3.“Lydia, it’s off, and it stays off. And the whole damn house dies as of here and now. The more I see of the mess we’ve put ourselves in, the more it sickens me. We’ve been contemplating our mechanical, electronic navels for too long. My God, how we need a breath of honest air!” (Page 13)
Explanation: All of this evidence relates to the trait of George being Insensitive. George never sits down to talk with the children to solve conflicts, and instead just shuts down the nursery because he is so caught up in himself. In the first piece of evidence he forces the children to go to bed, which causes the children to be angry. This shows that he only forces the kids, and doesn't talk to them to solve conflict. In the second piece of evidence,  He wouldn't let them go to New York. This is a sign of Insensitivity, meaning that he is so caught up with himself that he doesn't talk to his children to solve a problem. And finally, in the last piece of evidence, he forces the nursery off, without having a talk with his children trying to solve the conflict, which is why he is hated by the children and is then eaten by the lions.

Evidence:
1. “I’m afraid.” She came to him and put her body against him and cried steadily. 
 “Did you see? Did you feel? It’s too real.” 
“Now, Lydia...” 
“You’ve got to tell Wendy and Peter not to read any more on Africa.” 
“Of course — of course.” He patted her. “Promise?” “Sure.” 
“And lock the nursery for a few days until I get my nerves settled.” 
“You know how difficult Peter is about that. When I punished him a month ago by locking the nursery for even a few hours — the tantrum he threw! And Wendy too. They live for the nursery.” 
“It’s got to be locked, that’s all there is to it.” 
“All right.” Reluctantly he locked the huge door. (Page 4)
2. “But won’t the shock be too much for the children, shutting the room up abruptly, for good?”
 “I don’t want them going any deeper into this, that’s all.”  (Page 12)
3. “Lydia! Oh, my dear poor sweet Lydia!” 
“They almost got us!” 
“Walls, Lydia, remember; crystal walls, that’s all they are. Oh, they look real, I must admit — Africa in your parlor — but it’s all dimensional, superreactionary, super sensitive color film and mental tape film behind glass screens. It’s all odorophonics and sonics, Lydia. Here’s my handkerchief.” (Page 4)
Explanation: The reason George is caring is due to the evidence that has been presented, showing how caring he is. In the first piece of evidence it explains how Lydia was terrified about the nursey wanting it to be locked up although George wanted it to be open, he cared about Lydia so he locked it up. The second evidence explains George being worried about his kids Peter and Wendy Hadley. The last evidence that was provided was George comforting Lydia after the lions came charging at them, although he knew they were fake and not going to inflict harm, he still tried to comfort her.
