The Breakfast Club as a Healing Myth John Bender Anyone who has ever attended high school can instantly relate to the word “Bully”‚ whether its memories of being bullied by someone or being the bully yourself. Everyone knows to look out for him‚ but for the most part‚ once you have been picked to be the one being bullied‚ you might as well paint a bull’s-eye on your back.

The character I picked from The Breakfast Club is Allison Reynolds. This character relates to me by how she is quiet and doesn’t speak much when she isn’t comfortable with the people around her‚ eventually she will become comfortable and show her true self.

He was thinking in the now and not in the future. A noticeable moral of this film is: Parents should actually raise their children. In this film‚ all of the parents have

Question #1‚ Option b Roles are like “parts” we play in life‚ each with a set of expectations specific to that position (rules). In The Breakfast Club‚ Mr. Vernon has the role of the Principle.
