The veldt reflection 3

The protagonist on this story are the parents George and Lydia. Their desire is to get a psychologist to check their virtual nursery. Some traits that show that these are the protagonist are that they have a $30,000 house and they want help to know what's wrong with the nursery. The $30,000 house is the antagonist. This house is trying to stop the family from being normal and from doing things on their own. Also this house shows how incomplete the family is including from the parents to the children. The theme of this story is abandonment. The techniques that are being used to develop the story would be using personification. This technique is used to make the house come to live as if it were a human. Also this technique is used to show how something none existed could be used to the advantage of being abandoned by each member of the family. The crisis action would be when the parents go inside the nursery and the kids lock them away and they notice that the lions are eating the stimulates of them. What I enjoyed about this story is that its a story about things coming to live. Also the whole fact that the house is all run thought technology and at the end the parents suffer the consequences.
