Daily Bubble! - Goodbye World (2014) Discussion

I thought the child's behavior was pretty accurate for being raised by a couple liberals who don't want to "stifle their child's potential" or whatever it is that liberals believe strict parents do...

Accurate for sure, it was definitely the parent's fault for giving into her everytime she started screaming. Still obnoxious though.

You really should not generalize...I was raised by two very liberal parents and I never would have dreamed of talking back or even raising my voice to them...to say the least, they never "spared the rod"...at the same time, they never stifled my potential and were even fine when I went to art school... I had classmates who were raised in a more conservative household yet parents were divorced and used to play the "whose the better parent" by spoiling the kids rotten...some parents actually "parent" some don't...has nothing to do with ideology....

Every time she started yelling "daily bubble!", I couldn't help but yell "discipline!".

I got the impression that her parents more or less promised her that would be a daily thing. If anything, the parents were not keeping their word when they wouldn't do it. The little girl was making her parents keep their promise. Why is that any different than when parents make a child keep their promises? There are those who would argue that children have the right to punish their parents.

Uh no...I get that it was a daily thing, but children have to learn that sometimes things come up and plans change. ..it's called life....You have to be flexible with that. The child would be rightfully upset, but should not throw a tantrum over it. She was a snot nosed brat, plain and simple....

And in doing do, they've just taught their daughter that it's okay to break promises. Uh, no, it isn't.

Who was breaking a promise? It was a "not right now moment", it did not mean that they would not do the bubble thing later on. Again, children have to learn to be flexible, that things come up and interfere with our plans...it happens. We are experiencing blizzard conditions right now, and I know a lot of local kids were planning on heading to Chicago to see Disney on Ice/Frozen. Is it a terrible thing that parents "broke their promise" and could not take the kids due to terrible road conditions? Children need to learn that things happen, it is life...

No, little Hannah will grow up into a self-centered, "the world revolves around me and I want it now" Veruca Salt wannabe. Has nothing to do with teaching children to "break promises" as you put it...

The bubble is a metaphor for the entire premise of the movie.
How can you not see that?
The compound they were living in was just like a bubble.

It's just a matter of time before it popped.
Which eventually happened as bad people came in and others left.

Not a bad movie.
Not a great movie.
But entertaining and pretty much like life.
I liked it.

My post still applies to said perceived metaphor.

If a kid that whines a few times about wanting to blow bubbles is your idea of an out of control tantrum.... Please. Do not have children of your own.
