The Breakfast Club And Teen Identity

The detention Club is about a boy who wants his parents to understand him when he does something wrong. Wait let me explain so you can see his point of view. If a toddler put a fork in an outlet and you were the parent you would wrongly assume he/she were not thinking. Right? In reality he/she probably thought the fork would come to life.

And they would ask the toddler “why did you do that” and then when he/she says “I don’t know” he/she has to go in the corner now and “think about what you’ve done” but e did it for a reason.

Once they arrive to the library for detention they are instructed by the principal, Richard Vernon, to sit quietly for approximately eight hours and each write an essay about who they think they are. He randomly checks on the students during

First, Claire Standish she gets everything she wants, her dad treats her like a princess and she can’t do anything on her own. For example , She skipped school to go shopping but her dad didn’t really care cause he used to all ways get her out of Sunday detention but this time he couldn’t.

In observing them you can understand how they’re beginning to cognitively develop from children to adults

When each of the students came into detention, they each had their own identities and their own underlying issues that no one knew about. When they started to open up and grow closer with each other, their identities changed all together.

Some approaches and strategies that I picked up from the movie is that students may classify themselves under a certain stereo type and they each have their own clique. In the movie, they realized they each belonged to a certain clique, but in the end, they found out they have a lot more in common they realized. Another approach, I witnessed in the movie is that the principal did classify them as the stereo type he thought they were, however at the end of the film we see changes within the characters. Each of them may also had different norms about them, but were able to succeed and accomplish
