The film Fear and Learning at Hoover Elementary by Laura Angelica Simón, a Mexican immigrant and fourth-grade teacher at Hoover Elementary School in Los Angeles was made in response to 1994 California voters approval of the controversial Proposition 187, a ballot initiative denying public education and health care to all undocumented immigrants. ...
Using Galinski’s six stages of parenthood it can be said that despite the absence of Myra’s mother and father in the film, they are in what Galinski classifies as the the fourth stage or the “The Interpretive Stage”, at this point in her life Myra’s mother is faced with having to no only interpret the world to her but also the circumstances surrounding her fear of being thrown out of school and maybe even the country. (Galinski 1987) In this stage parents are concerned about how realistic they have been as parents and how they are helping their child develop positive self-concepts and ideas, Myra’s mother faces a daunting task in being realistic with her daughter about the outcome of the passing of proposition 187 and ultimately her right to attend Hoover Elementary and continue her pursuit of a college degree.
