Question

defensible claim regarding how Bradbury uses plot events to convey the parents' complex attitude towards raising their children in the story The veldt.

Answer 1

Answer:

Bradbury in The Veldt presents a situation where a family has an intelligent house that has a particular room where the kids (Peter and Wendy) can think about different situations and the walls and the ceiling project those situations, making them more real (the noises and smell also reflect those situations).

This story describes how technology replaces humans in every aspect of their lives with the excuse of being "helpful". This parents are feeling useless because their house makes everything for them, they don't cook, they don't even shower themselves. However, what is more important is that this house replaced the role of parenting. Peter and Wendy feel loved by the house, but they don't feel loved by their parents: their mom and their dad are the ones who put "limits" and who tell them off.

Peter and Wendy's parents start worrying way too late. They were too comfortable to worry and the ending of the story represents it.

Explanation:

To complete this exercise, you have to read The Veldt by Ray Bradbury. Bradbury was a well-known writer from the United States who wrote mostly science fiction and dystopic novels and stories.

This story describes how technology ended up replacing everything in this family's lives and the consequences it brought.
