Little Mermaid

This is the story of a little mermaid named Ariel, who dreams of going in a higher place the sea. When her father, King Triton, forbids her to go above the sea, she visits Queen Ursula who her father had banished. in time though she helps her arrest to get above the sea, what Ariel doesnt know is that Ursula has plans to destroy her to get revenge on her father. Ariel uses her voice to get the prince attention. In this paper I entrust use theories to summarize Little Mermaid movie.I believe Ariel is at stage 6 of Ericksons theory because she is now at the age where she think she know what hump is. Her father forbid her to go above the sea besides the love she had for the prince caused he to defy what her father instructed. Ariel was determined and will not let zero stop her. She went into a stage of isolation everything she did or thought about was revolved around getting married to the prince. She had other sisters and a father but whenever it was time for the other mermaids to sing or put on an show, little Ariel was no where to be found.When her Father learned of her defying his word, he was angry. Ariel took matters in her own hand, by consulting with the wicked Queen alone. Yes granted the wicked Queen Ursula made Ariel human, but at what cost? The cost was her voice (operant conditioning). Not really understanding how she would get the prince to know her because she was unable to talk, Ariel used her looks to entice the prince. She was like some typical teenagers today.Ariels father wanted to reinforce a positive behavior (not allowing her to go above the sea, for her safety), but Ariel acted out in a negative way (she went above the sea anyway). Ariel performed a voluntary action to get something she wanted (operant behavior). Growing up as the youngest of her other five sisters, Ariel felt a sense of inferiority to her older sister. They were all able to go above the sea but she was not because of her age (industry vs inferiority, Eriksons Psycho social Stages of Development).The feeling of inferiority that Ariel felt was so strong, that she felt the need to go above the see everyday. In Piagets theory which states as a someone goes through life Ariel was so determined to become a human that she imitated and idiolized what humans did. Each time she woud visit above the sea she would come dressing with a keepsake that humans used(comb, fork, and even the statue that fell off the princes boat during a storm one particular day. This type of behavior
