Buffy The Vampire Slayer's "Band Candy" – Lost Childhood
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. There is truth to the saying that people are never satisfied with what they have, and it is not limited to material possessions. Children – seeking to attain freedom, independence and grownup privileges – are forever wishing they were older; adults, on the other hand – seeking to abandon responsibility, rediscover their freedom and remember when life was so much simpler – long to revisit their lost childhood. Clearly, the impact of adulthood, although a highly desirable commodity to those yet to reach it, ultimately becomes a daily quest just to maintain one's social, economic and personal duty, while at the same time finding some peace of mind. Children do not grasp the amount of responsibility required of an adult but rather only see the fun and limitless boundaries grownups have. An obscure way this is related comes from the "Band Candy" episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, where the adults unwittingly buy and consume fundraising candy that has been hexed with a youth-inducing spell.

Case Study: 11-Year-Old-Boy
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. After an uneventful birth, Carlos met and surpassed his first-year milestones but was not a bright and curious child who eagerly developed an understanding of the world around him; rather, he struggled emotionally due to the lack of supportive presence from his mother who did not want the pregnancy in the first place and a father whose own mental stability was in question. Now at eleven years old, Carlos has undergone a number of traumatic events not typically associated with his age group and has had great difficulty coping with the emotional insecurity he unwittingly developed during his most formative years. This instability has been manifesting itself in the form of truancy, aggressive behavior and violent tendencies. No bibliography. TLCcsboy.rtf
