In the film, Captain America plays Frank Adler, a former assistant professor at Boston University who now works as a boat repairman. After his sister commits suicide, he adopts his niece Mary, an intellectual genius. As soon as Mary entered school, she behaved However, her uncle Frank just wanted her to live a normal life. Mary's grandmother learns of the girl's talent and comes into their lives to train Mary to be a math genius. So a custody battle began.

When treating children, should we let them do what they like, or should we strictly train them? I agree with the former, that is, Mary's uncle hopes Mary to grow up happily like an ordinary child in the movie. Mary's grandmother wanted to make history by training her in every way she could. Although the grandmother is for Mary's good, Mary may not feel free and happy under this "good for her".

I hope every child can grow up happily!
