Period 6,7 The Cat In The Hat


In this story they talk about the Id, Ego, and Super Ego. The Id is more on the devilish side (your instinct). The ego is like more in the middle of the id and super ego (balanced). The super ego is more on the angelish side (you think before doing it). What we will be talking about must in the story is the id.

In “The Cat In The Hat id mostly takes over the cat. The cat sometimes shows his ego but rally. He doesn’t show his super ego until the end of the story but I am not going to tell you how just yet. The cat is not only thing that goes through these three phases because we do as well on daily bases.

Throughout the story “The Cat In The Hat” his personality changes from the beginning until the end, with the id to the ego to the super ego. I would say that most of his personality is the id. It’s not that “The Cat In The Hat” is evil it is just he has no sense of responsibilities and no limitations on having fun. We show our id everyday. It’s not a bad thing it just shows type of personality we have. Like the cats personality is hyper and likes to have fun. He also doesn’t care what anything or anyone says like the fish and the kids.

The cat started showing his ego he arrived. He tried t show the kids how to have fun. They were having a lot of fun until the cat got carried away. That’s when he started to get out of control and bring out thing one and two. Which caused a big mess. The kids were scared because their mom was coming home soon and they didn’t no what to do.

Last but not least the super ego. When sally and “I” finally decided to listen to their the fish, and catch thing one and two with a net they gave them too the cat. After they gave thing one and two to the cat they told him to leave. It took a while until the cat finally listened and left. Meanwhile the kids were still so nervous and did not know what to do about the big mess that crazy cat left. It was not long until he arrived again to help them with the mess him and his little friends made. Now this is all his super ego stepping in. He then pulled out another trick but this time the trick did not mess up the house it cleaned it. This is known as the super ego. So because of the cat‘s super ego the kids and the fish were happy. Another thing their mom never found out about how much fun they had on that one rainy day. Would u tell your mom?
