-Peter Pan is a much-beloved childrens story. But, it usually does give an adult pause when they come to read it to there own children. A parent is often thinking of either the stage productions they might have seen or the Disney animated film. The novel, than, can come as a tremendous shock, especially in it's treatment of women. Especially for feminists. It could be argued that Barrie's book was simply a reflection of English society and values at the turn of the 20th century others might see a more disturbing reflection of soceital norms or a reflection of Barrie's own love/hate relationship with his mother/woman.

Only Mrs. Darling remembered anything about Peter Pan what she does remember is quite disturbing, she seems to be able to understand childhood and children. Whereas Mr. Darling is only a large child, an overgrown lost boy- like Hook, looking for a mother to look after them. What prompts Peter to take Wendy; and only incidentaly her brothers to Neverland is Wendys' ability to sew his shadow back on: and her bed-time storytelling ability. She becomes the stand-in mother in Neverland, which is predominantly male. Populate by the lost boys, the red Indians, and the pirates. The only other female characters are definitely not mothers and could be said to be 'the other kind' of female, the seductress or temptress. Tinker-Bell's 'problem' with Wendy most adults would recognize as sexuel jealousy, and Tiger Lily is seeking a relationship from Peter that has nothing to do with 'mothering'
