THEME

The theme for the novel The Lord of the Flies, by William Golding is that kids needs their parents care as long as they are teenagers. Without adults in our world we would turn into savages instead of being civilized. This novel is a perfect example because the kids in the island were out of control, killing, and fighting each other. They were fighting about who’s going to become the leader of the survivors on the island. This is the reason why we have rules in our modern day society, because we don’t go running around killing, and fighting with each other to choose who is going to be the chief.

Also it is extremely important to a teenager living in 2008 because the book is about teenagers like us and it is written about their behaviors when they are on the island. The theme is like if you are a civilized person or an uncivilized person. It’s about teenagers struggling with rules throughout their teenage life. So I think this theme is related to me because even I sometimes wish that there were no rules like the SAVE policy. Sometimes this kid really annoys me but it’s like he/she is like guarded with this SAVE policy, so thank God that he made rules. By good education and surroundings, we will be raised and civilized. Without training and education we will be lead into a savagery.

Now, what does this theme have to do with a teenager living in 2008? I say probably not because we won’t go killing each other around on an island, would we?
