And the advice given by Dr. David McClean. ]]> 2018-09-27 07:51:13 UTC https://padlet.com/tvkr1/uuhd1o95umuu/wish/286377701 The nursery tvkr1 https://padlet.com/tvkr1/uuhd1o95umuu/wish/286377765 The nursery brings your imagination to life

The nursery acts as the children's fantasy. It shows the children's destructive thoughts. Earlier in the story, we are told that the nursery once was full of fairytales. But as the children became older, the more devious the nursery become.  ]]> 2018-09-27 07:51:33 UTC https://padlet.com/tvkr1/uuhd1o95umuu/wish/286377765 The ending. tvkr1 https://padlet.com/tvkr1/uuhd1o95umuu/wish/286378336 Comment on: "And suddenly they realized why those other screams had sounded so familiar." as well as other parts of the ending. 

" "A cup of tea?" asked Wendy in the silence." The children are trying to lull David McClean into thinking that everything is okay. They are trying to act normal, despite the fact that they had just murdered their parents. When his guard is down, they will probably get him out of they way too. 

The lines in the ending of the story "And suddenly they realized why those other screams had sounded so familiar" point us towards the conclusion that Peter and Wendy have spent a lot of their time in the nursery fantasising the parents' death and imagining them being killed and eaten by the lions in the veldt. At the very end, their wishes become reality. Therfore the parents felt like the screams sounded familiar because it acutally was their screams as the children had imagened it.

Comment on the relation between the story and first world problems. ]]> 2018-09-27 08:36:57 UTC https://padlet.com/tvkr1/uuhd1o95umuu/wish/286391885 The mother https://padlet.com/tvkr1/uuhd1o95umuu/wish/286400986 Characterize the mother

Lydia:
She is worried and wants her husband to take responsibility.
 ''And again George Hadley was filled with admiration for the mechanical genius who had conceived this room.''  

She becomes very scared.
She doesn't feel like she belong in the house.
''That's just it. I feel I don't belong here. The house is wife and mother now and nursemaid. Can I compete with an African veld? Can I give a bath and scrub the children as efficiently or quickly as the automatic scrub bath can? I cannot. ''

At first she was conserned but in the end she was not that much.
'Oh George,' said the wife, 'it can't hurt.'
'All right - all right, if they'll only just shut up. One minute, mind you, and then off forever.'

This is shown in line 350 "You've let this room and this house replace you and your wife in your children's affections"  
It is that people should show caution towards new tecnology.
 "Mr. Hadley looked at his wife and they turned and looked back at the beasts edging slowly forward crouching, tails stiff. Mr. and Mrs. Hadley screamed."
This shows that new tecnologi can have horrible concequenses. 

The first world problem in this story, concers how well of the parents are off. Having the luxury of having a caretaker in form of a fully functionel AI. A first world problem in text is that if the kichen is not fully functional, they woulod not have the ability to cook. ]]> 2018-09-27 09:05:53 UTC https://padlet.com/tvkr1/uuhd1o95umuu/wish/286401025 The father, characterize https://padlet.com/tvkr1/uuhd1o95umuu/wish/286401574 · Control freak

The place is a "Happy-life home", most likely England, since there is talk about tea-time. Robots and machines takes cares of everything.
