In the movie, “The Mosquito Coast,” the father of the family lived in a neighborhood where he used to work near a farm. He invented a machine which creates ice out of fire. He brought the machine to the farm and showed the other workers how the machine is really useful. Later on, the father decided to go to the jungle with his family and live there. He actually brought the machine to the jungle and tried to create ice for the people in the jungle. He had some other men who worked with him in building houses in the jungle. Although the father had a good responsibility in taking care of his family and workers, he treated the men like they were workers who work for him. He just forced them to work for him. Whenever the men or his family members had different opinions, he never listened to them and just thought that he is always right. The father spoke and behaved to his family and the workers very rudely whenever they had different opinions. The father also discriminated the workers in the jungle only because they were people from different ethnic group. He did not even care if his family was sick. The father thinks that his ideas are always the right way to survive.
Later when the father sees the native people of the jungle, he gets surprised. To make sure that the native people will not try to kick them out of the jungle, he says that he has a present ready for him which is the ice. Unfortunately, the ice melted as he tried to bring it to the natives.
There were some men coming to the jungle and visiting the family. The father did not really like the men, he told them to sleep inside the machine which creates ice out of fire. Few hours later, the father tried to kill the men so he burned the machine. After the machine got destroyed, the father gets really upset about it.
The father tried to run away with his family as he tried to burn his neighbor’s house with oil and wood. His family members did not like what he was doing but he tried to do whatever he wants to do. He gets shot by one of his neighbor due to burning the neighbor’s house.
In the book, “The Poisonwood Bible,” Nathan Price forced his family to go to Congo. Nathan thinks that the Congolese people are much inferior to him. He even discriminated the Congolese people just because he thinks that they are inferior to him. Nathan always tries to control the family and tried to force the other family members to listen to him whatever he says to do. For example, there was a situation where the family got very sick due to the malaria in Africa. When the children were becoming very sick due to malaria, Nathan did not even care about whether his children were dying or not. He just felt okay only if he was not sick due to malaria. The father just wanted to treat his family like when he is the owner of the family. Later on, the family wanted to escape from Congo due to the hardships in Congo.
