Peter Pan brings up a good discussion on the correct relation of the family. In Peter Pan, they go off to Never Never Land where there are no parents and kids run wild. Wendy and her brothers accompany Peter Pan on his adventure to Never Never Land, especially since their parents went out for the night and their father had just gotten angry at them. They think that no parents will be so fun. When Wendy arrives, she becomes a mother type figure for the boys, which they have all been needing. In the end, Wendy and her brothers miss home and their parents very much. This shows that indeed God did create a certain structure for the family and it is not good for family breaks. Children are supposed to obey their parents and their parents are supposed to lead them in a good, Christian way. Children in Never Never Land needed parents and families to show them the difference between right and wrong, and obviously a void was missing in their lives, running wild without any authority was not best for them.
