After watching this utopian film, what I want to discuss most is education. He believes that the father's education method in the film is to allow children to better enter the society, eliminate unnecessary knowledge and sort out a complete knowledge system. This is indeed the role of the school, to select knowledge, to train students for better acceptance. But in the end, he drove his wife crazy and made her commit suicide. The children knew nothing but knowledge, had no sense of shame, didn't know how to communicate, and couldn't integrate into society normally. This is exactly the opposite of his purpose. In fact, although the father played the role of the principal, it violated the essence of education. According to Neil Postman, the essence of education should be to cultivate children to form correct concepts through screening knowledge, so as to have the ability to choose and judge independently. However, the protagonist in the story just imposes his own values and worldview on the child, causing the child to talk about politics and see things directly to the essence. So what they learn is how to make themselves better, not the ability to adapt to society and integrate into the collective. This causes them to lose their childhood prematurely. In "The Disappearance of Childhood", it is mentioned that the reason why childhood is childhood is because the adult world hides it. If sex, violence, politics, conspiracy, etc. are all said recklessly in the mouths of children, they cannot be called children at all, but small adults. The joys and imaginations of childhood are overwhelmed and killed by reality and essence. They lack the imagination and spontaneous curiosity of children. In short, others will find their lives boring. Second, it makes them socially ostracized. Today's society is an entertainment society, all discourses are based around television and computer ideology, and their entertainment exists only in their family system, a product of the printing press age. One of the side effects of entertainment is to facilitate communication. Unfortunately, they can't do it, so that the eldest son is attracted to the camping girl and wants to keep her. He can only rely on the marriage proposal mentioned in the book. It is true that a lot of entertainment in society is meaningless, but it is meaningful to understand it and communicate with people, so as to obtain a lot of information. Finally, through the clues buried in the story, if it continues unbroken, the children can only become experts in all walks of life, so their path will be very narrow. This is good for human society, but it is unfair to them. At the same time, I also want to criticize the parents who are constantly grooming their children, stereotypes them prematurely, let them make money, or let them have a superb skill to live well in this era. This kind of life Have you ever asked your children if they like it or not? Is this way just out of your own imagination or a given purpose? The reason why childhood is precious is that it has not yet been stereotyped and has unlimited space for development, so please give children more space for freedom, so that their growth will not be so restrained. In fact, I want to give the film a 7.5 because there are too few contradictions in the story, too many descriptive scenes, and the children's personalities are not prominent. The protagonist's image is also not full enough. But the discussion thinking in it is enough, suitable for teachers or parents to see.
