Question; How does Ender’s experience at the camp? How does this relate to people with social disorder(s) in reality? Does each person in a family affect everyone differently? Influence?
Everyone is different. We can’t change anyone unless they want to. But, when a person is pressured and demoralized by their family, that person can quickly change- for better or worse. It depends on how the person interacts with them. A novel, Enders Game, by Orson Card, he discusses the difficulty Ender, the main character exhibits- from social disorders to family effectiveness.
Everyone is different. We all have our own successes and flaws. Many people today to do not recognize their mental problems and sometimes disrupts ones actions and social advantages. For example, a novel, Ender’s Game, by Orson Card, discusses the social problems the main character, Ender encounters. The principle manipulated him by saying that his family hates him and does not want him, and so this made him go to a camp. In this camp, Ender is segregated by all the other people- alone. They do this particularly because they say he gets manipulated easily and will not be as smart. But, when he is alone, he thinks a lot and builds up his memory. Ender has many social problems that his sister, Valentine, is involved. Graff states,
“I wish I could tell you everything about Ender’s situation. But it would take hours, maybe days, and afterward, I’d have to put you in protective confinement because so much of it is strictly confidential. So let’s see what we can do with limited information...” (pg. 144)
Based on this quote, Graff describes Ender as if he is a monster- scary, unwanted, and “special” essentially because he says, if he tells her 9Valentine) about his situation, then something will happen to her. This fears and gives a whole new perception to Valentine about her younger brother. In addition, Graff maybe saying this get something out of her.
From Ender’s perspective, he wants to be normal, and the supervisors restrain him from doing so. Although they may assume it if better for him, it definitely is not because he is not allowed exploring freely- similar to a prisoner- gated and innocent.
As a society, this also relates to the billions of children around the world who have social disorders. For example, many children sometimes have a challenge connect to “non-disorder like children” and they do not know why- they feel lost and depreciated. Often times, they ignore the fact and just appear as them selves as if they do not have a mental disability. This causes confusion and awkwardness to the “normal” people mainly because they do not know what to say or how to react. Ender has the same challenge. But because he does not have the ability to
chill with other people, he is assumed to be documented as having some type of social disorder.
Therefore, Ender’s Game has a distinct correlation with our current society.
Relatives are important. They affect each person in a household differently. When an individual in the home has a negative characteristic, it affects the others differently, and more based on how long they know that certain person. In the novel, Ender’s Game, by Orson Scott, he discusses about the situation dealing with Ender, the main character and how it affect his relatives.
Graff has an intense discussion with Valentine about Ender, and she goes out-of-control:
“I know what you’re thinking, you bastard, you’re thinking that I am wrong, that Ender’s like
Peter. Well maybe I’m like Peter, but Ender Isn’t, he isn’t at all, I used to tell him that when he cried, I told him that lots of times, you’re not like Peter, you never like to hurt people, you’re kind and good and not like Peter at all!” (148)
Valentines love for Ender is easily symbolized here. She continuously states that Ender is not like Peter and how they are drastically different. In addition, it also seems like she is taking the blame for Ender’s condition. Her negative tone shows how much she worries and put in a lot of effort for him.
Also, this demonstrates that Peter is a bad influence on both, Ender and Valentine. They fear their own brother, and follow his commands even though they do not want to, personally. But, I clearly understand why they do so: first, he is their older brother, and second, he is a fearful monster.
Ender’s influence, especially from his older brother affects him more than his sister- essentially because he is the same gender as him. Most importantly, Ender does not understand how much of a bad affect he is, and realizes how much he affects him (Ender) - in my opinion.
Overall, every single human in a household affects each and every organism differently. Each person influences others without even noticing/ trying. So, what I am trying to say is that: Be careful what you say and do, because it affects the people around you.
Also, the camp he is in ruins Ender, socially because they say, “Isolation is-- the optimum environment for creativity,” (149). It is his ideas they want. They just want his knowledge and creativity. His physical self is not want they essentially need/ care about. It is a shame how people could treat so nicely but at the end of the day, they are just negative influence and unwanted humans.
As a result, social disorders and family interactions have a correlation between each other. Often times, these will never change, but with patience, anything can happen.
