After watching this movie, I have some feelings, and I want to talk about my problem with the Chinese-style parent-child relationship reflected in this movie.
In the film, we can see the mother's dedication to Bao Baobao, and a huge amount of affection is invested in the child. This may be a common situation in Chinese families. There is no doubt about the mother's love for the child, which may be related to traditional Chinese culture. , When most mothers look at their children, they do not regard him as a complete individual. Many mothers always think that the child is a part of their body, so they will have a strong desire to control the child, and want to make the child always under its own control.
In the film, Bao Ma created Bao Bao Bao and loved it. Out of love for the child, she intervened infinitely in the child. When the child began to have his own ideas and wanted to be independent, Bao Ma chose to swallow Bao Bao. This is the assimilation of Bao Bao, allowing Bao Bao to become a part of himself again and have absolute control over it.
In reality, after a lot of hard work, mothers have subconsciously regarded their children as part of themselves, and in many families, most of them always want to control their children, so they intervene excessively in their children. This is called blurring of self-boundary. , and the independence of the child is inevitable. When the child successfully counteracts the control, part of the mother is missing. This is unbearable pain, and this is a morbid symbiotic relationship.
The contradiction between the mother's control and the child's anti-control, the contradiction between the mother's morbid psychological needs and the child's independent needs, may be able to find a solution in this short film.
