Chapter 2 thoughts on Alice

Connections: Alice is getting weird and tends to talk to herself more and more the farther she goes down the hole and she’s starting to wonder who she is now. We think this article connects to this article https://www.psychologytoday.com/articles/200307/the-dangers-loneliness because the article talks about how loneliness can lead to deprivation of learning and memory, and excessive self-talking, so it’s not confirmed but she could be acting like this because of her loneliness and lack of friends

Connections: http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/21/health/bipolar-healthcare-parity/index.html

This connects to Alice Because, Alice is very emotional and her emotions change almost every second, As if she is bipolar and is very confused about who she is.

Alice is socially awkward which is why she doesn't have many friends. We say this because girls at this time were social, but they were socially stable, Alice tends to talk to herself which isn't normal for a girl of her caliber, and in her timeline. Also, Alice is very emotional and that isn't really a matter of timeline in her case because girls are naturally emotional, but girls never were on and off like she is, Alice is basically bipolar and just can't control the way she feels at times. It seems as if she doesn't understand who she is, and how to mature.

To summarize, Alice heard feet in the distance, it was a white rabbit. The rabbit had a pair of white kid gloves and in one hand and a large fan, after a while the rabbit dropped the white kid gloves and the fan and ran into the darkness as fast as he could. Alice later then picked up the items, while holding the fan she started to shrink, but she wasn't paying attention and realized that she was smaller to about two feet high instead of the nine feet she was a few seconds ago. She then started to swim in her tears that she made at nine feet high and perceived to see a mouse in her wake, she then started talking to the mouse. That begin to make her seem strange and unusual.

This video connected with this article because it is said that kids with ADHD tend to have less maturity than kids without ADHD, and kids with this can’t seem to focus on one thing at a time and seems a lot like the way Alice acts, therefore I’m inferring that Alice could have ADHD which is how this article connects to chapter 19 (Brain Maturity May Lag In Kids With ADHD. (2007, November 12).

 I think that she doesn't understand what consequences of your actions means or else she wouldn't be one to wonder off by herself especially in this timeline. So in the end, we have both concurred that Alice isn't exactly a normal or at least wise girl when it comes to cause and effect and or consequences of her actions.

http://www.wxii12.com/news/man-reports-falling-into-hole-in-madison-search-rescue-under-way/37560330 I connected this article with Alice because, the guy fell down the hole as well as Alice when she fell down the rabbit hole.

This story is very unique, it got me thinking more about Alice and how every fantasy story has that one innocent young girl who is growing up. (Deputies: Man who reported falling into hole found. (2016, January 22).  

First, Alice was with her sister doing nothing just talking, but then she came across a rabbit with a coat and a watch and decided to follow it down a rabbit hole. All of a sudden she fell down a rabbit hole. While falling in the rabbit hole, she and the rabbit innocents were fading away. When she finally landed she had seem to have lost the rabbit and had checked many doors before giving up and crying.

To start off, in the book Alice in the world land. Alice is a very awkward girl, but this isn't really a bad thing. Alice is a very curious, and immature girl. And it got us thinking a lot more about Alice and how every fantasy story has that one innocent young girl that grows up. She doesn't really understand the consequences of her actions which has us thinking that she has three things to work on which are, focus, responsibility, and maturity. In our opinion, this connects to girls growing up and learning how to Be proper because girls in her time were not able to be curious and immature about situations, and Alice is the complete opposite of that which is how it connects to how girls grow up and learning how to be proper. Which makes us wonder if she has every actually been taught proper educate by her sister or if her sister even knows what proper educate is it would be a real surprise if they knew, but never applied it in their life time.
