nelsons first assignment R.O.B.

The "xmas fantasy" to me showed a different side to Chappie, it showed a loving and caring side to this rebel character. He realizes that he misses his family and wishes he could go back home to their love. His fantasy is actually the complete opposite of the way he acts in real life. In his fantasy he buys his family all these gifts with no wishes to get gifts in return, yet in real life he is getting caught for shop lifting. I think deep down Chappie is a nice kid, but he is just in with the wrong crowd. His friend Russ is the main influence in his life, which isn't doing any good for himself.
        I feel like chappie is immature and has a tendency to over react. To have gone through all these experiences at only 14 is crazy! He still has a lot of groing up to do and he has plenty of time for that at only 14 years old.
