The Lion King 2

After a long time, I watched "The Lion King 2" again. It may be a different age, and I have a lot of thoughts and emotions that I have never had before. This is a film mixed with several contradictions of parent-child relationship, family education, family hatred, and defense of love. First of all, talk about the parent-child relationship. Simba’s love for her daughter Kiraya is envious of many people, but for Kiraya, she does not like her father’s overprotection, which reminds me of Zhu Yuchen’s mother’s love that has been overwhelmingly discussed these days. A love controlled in the name of love. I have seen "The Lion King 1" and I know that Simba has experienced a beautiful and cruel childhood, a carefree teenager who forgets hatred, and an adult who regains the throne with revenge. This kind of hardship and displacement makes him a normal fatherly love. Too much worry and protection were added to the foundation, and I wanted to give Kiraya the most carefree life. This is the way most parents love their children and don't want their children to experience the sufferings they have encountered. I think Mother Zhu may also have something she doesn't want Zhu Yuchen to experience. She loves her child with all the love she thinks, but she doesn't know that she has woven a big net for her child. In this regard, Kiraya was luckier than Zhu Yuchen, and Simba was more subtle than Zhu's mother. In fact, I am the least willing to evaluate these parent-child relationships. One is that you will not get too much background information like watching a movie, and the other is that you are also acting as a parent and child, knowing that it is too difficult to be perfect. , It's hard to even make do, just keep thinking about reducing the damage. I think there is a scene in the movie that best interprets this relationship: When Simba saw Kiraya and Gao Fu embracing each other, he stood on a high mountain, looking up at the stars, and cried out in confusion " Mufasa" (Simba's father) name. The reason why I like this scene the most is because it is the most common state of being a parent. Mufasa has never taught Simba to be a father. Every parent is under the influence of his parents while adding his own will to groping forward. They have no answers, and most of them are confused and perplexed. They want to be good parents, but if they are not careful, they will become vicious and unreasonable in the eyes of their children. Second: talk about family education. Gina's mother's education to her son Gao Fu is simple and straightforward: revenge pawn. All her education for him was to let him grow wildly with the seeds of hatred. Although she gave Gao Fu a high status and taught him strong skills, she instilled no love, only hatred. Before encountering Kiraya's love, he obeyed his mother. From the perspective of obedience, Gina's education was successful, but from the perspective of identification, Gina's education was a failure. Simba gave Kiraya a very traditional education, Will continue to emphasize safety education, and will give her skills step by step, but his worry and uncertainty make Kiraya dissatisfied and disgusted, he even wants to stifle her adventurous spirit, although he always hopes to be under his protection Let her grow up carefree. Simba is worth learning from many parents. He dared to admit his mistakes and sincerely apologize to his juniors, just like he misunderstood Gao Fu and apologized to him. It takes a lot of work.
