Peter Pan
Peter Pan
I am reading a book I got from the library called The Peter Pan Syndrome: Men Who Never Grew Up. It's great! It was written in 1983 (hard to believe that was 25 years ago! ) I just googled the author and he died in 1996, so that was kind of disappointing.
Anyway...it's eerie..the narcissism and immaturity of Peter Pan. I read the original to my son a few years ago and I remember thinking about him actually being a sad, selfish character.
I am enjoying the book because it talks about how to PREVENT this in children, and with two boys, one starting adolescence, and all the craziness at home, it is very interesting reading. I recognize some things there that I think I need to address.
I'll post a few things out of the book later...I think you guys would be interested in the "mother" issues...as in they want us all to be Wendy. Some of it really made some light bulbs go off about my husband...and his mommy.
