You have a worksheet you did during the film that should now be full of notes about all the relationships we considered in the film: Juno and her self Juno and Paul Bleaker Mark and Vanessa Juno and her dad Vanessa and Juno Juno and Mark Juno and her stepmom Juno and her baby Vanessa and the baby
You were asked to observe how individuals grew as human beings, or failed to grow. You were asked to carefully observe relationships and how the individuals grew (or failed to grow) in those relationships.
You are at a time in life when you are growing and changing rapidly. Hopefully, by considering these individuals and their relationships, you can learn more about how you are growing in your understanding of yourself and others.
