Response to "Beloved-The spoiled brat!"

I have to disagree with you on your "analysis" of Beloved, Sadea. Beloved is a very allegorical character in this book/movie. She represents a number of things (not just Sethe's dead baby). However, your idea that Beloved should have known better while proceeding in her actions is one that I must dispute.
"How can she think about having sex with Paul D. when he is so much older than her. She also knows that Paul D. loves Sethe, who is her mother. I know that she is supposed to be a little child, but I feel that even little kids can tell that what Beloved forced Paul D. to do was immoral."
I get what your saying to some extent. On the contrary, Beloved is the same age that she was when she died but in the body of a pre-teenager. Children have no morality and do not distniguish right from wrong until a certain age. There was no way Beloved could have known that "raping" Paul D was wrong because the way she saw it, it was good. She saw the happieness her mother recieved from it and Beloved assumed it to be fun. Monkey see, monkey do as the old saying goes. Also, Beloved is possesed by a disturbed spirit and when the rape scene occured the red light over the shack was shown, indicating there was a higher power at play here.
I don't believe Beloved herself was evil. Just the thought of her.
After all, Beloved made everyone grow in the movie. It's very interesting at how such a character can contribute so much to Denver, Sethe, and Paul D., while having such actions.
I agree that Sethe has suffered the most. My point substantiated by Marci's and Arielle's posts.

Hey, Chem people...wasn't that regents sooo hard...and long?!
