The real horror of horror movies is not ghosts, but the panic caused by potential dangers in reality. The director of "Lake Eden" clearly understands this, turning his camera to the high-profile issue of juvenile delinquency. The problem of juvenile delinquency has always been a stubborn disease in society, and it is becoming more and more serious. Vicious crimes by juveniles are often seen in the news, and each time it has aroused extensive social discussion, and the fact that juvenile offenders are often not punished by law or given lighter punishments because of their age is even more controversial. Netizens also ridiculed that our Minor Protection Law has become the Minor Scum Protection Law. The growing problem of juvenile delinquency should indeed arouse our attention.
The film tells the tragic story of a pair of lovers on vacation who unfortunately met a group of problem children and were tortured and killed! After watching it, it was terrifying! They were in the flowering season and should be swaying their youth on campus, and in this film He became a bloodthirsty demon.
Ricky was the leader of the group of kids and the culprit in the whole thing. He provoked and wrapped other children to join the ranks of the abusers, using intimidation to drive away the fear and kindness in other children's hearts, pushing them into the abyss step by step, towards evil, and there is no turning back. Ricky's family situation is also introduced in the film. His father was short-tempered and had domestic violence, and it is not surprising that Ricky, who grew up in this family environment, eventually became a problem teenager. In the film, parents are partying and carnival on one side, and children are killing young couples on the other side. The children have been in the wild for three or two days without returning home. . It can be seen that the lack and failure of family education is the root cause of problem teenagers.
The family environment of troubled teenagers is the key to leading them astray. Categorizing their family environment, these keywords often appear - poverty, single parent, parental alcoholism, gambling, drug addiction, domestic violence and even sexual assault, lack of love and care. Every child is an angel, but angels live in hell and sooner or later become demons.
In general, every troubled teenager has an unhappy family. The key to the problem of juvenile delinquency is to prevent it from happening. No amount of tough laws can reduce the rising juvenile delinquency rate. In foreign countries, parents will be deprived of guardianship if they have domestic violence or other dangerous behaviors, but in China, public power has not really intervened in this phenomenon. At the same time, due to national conditions, there are a large number of left-behind children in rural and other backward areas. Left-behind children lack parental care and love, supervision and education as they grow up. Children in this environment are very prone to go astray and make big mistakes. CCTV Legal Channel once had a program called "The Disappearing Couple", which can be called the reality version of "Eden Lake".
At the end of the film there is an interesting sentence, "He's just a child", which often becomes a shield for troubled parents to absolve their bear children from responsibility. It seemed that because he was still a child, he could be forgiven for whatever he did. Regardless of the behavior of the child, the behavior of such parents is the most abhorrent. Turn a blind eye to the child's problems, but condone it to excuse it, this is the real harm to the child. Once children fail to learn from their mistakes and understand the truth, they will intensify their efforts and endanger society when they are no longer children.
In the final analysis, the problem of juvenile delinquency is still the problem of family education, and a good family education environment requires the joint efforts of the whole society. Let the children who are still in school age stay in school instead of loitering in the society, and give more care to the left-behind children. Let every child grow up healthy in a good family environment!
