Johh F. Kennedy Jr.

So I did my case presentation on john f Kennedy JR

So john F Kennedy JR was the son

Of Jacqueline Kennedy and John F.

Kennedy who was the 35th president of the United States.

JFK jr was born on November 25, 1960,

only weeks after his father was elected president.

Um so some demographics, JFK jr was known for many professions,

such as an actor, lawyer and journalist.

His life ended tragically in a plane he was driving crashed in

the year of 1999 on his way to a cousin's wedding.

Many would agree that JFK JR was the spitting image of his father,

but he by no means wish to live under the shadow of fame

two.

Um so early childhood for the first three years of his life,

he lived in the White House

with his father and mother until his father's assassination,

one of JFK junior's most familiar memories of the White House

was playing under his father's desk.

Although the loss of his father

left his wife, a single mother of two.

Her productive nous towards her Children and her

caring nature offered JFK JR sense of security

and trust

and ultimately led to his life of optimism and hope.

Although shielded from the death of his father,

JFK JR was under constant protection

from bodyguards

when his uncle robert Kennedy was assassinated. Years later,

the Children were traumatized and a new sense

of protectiveness kicked in for his mother,

Jackie

Mhm

But the

um so early adulthood,

JFK JR thrive socially in high school

and college and develop healthy relationships.

He did stay back in high school an extra year to help prepare for college as

academic tests did not come as easy and

ended up being diagnosed with a learning disorder.

JFK JR continued to find his identity through college

and got heavily involved in the college.

When his influential mother passed away in 1994,

JFK jr felt the effects of this greatly.

He suddenly began to feel the great weight of his parents legacy.

As at this point, they had both passed on.

It's

some personality characteristics

JFK JR expressed,

expressed a distinct nature of a torn self,

which illustrates a battle between his true and false self.

The true self illustrates the individual's natural way of being in the world.

Whereas the false self illustrates the rigid,

protective part of the self or the tougher outer skin

factors surrounding JFK Junior's tragic death.

JFK Jr was always fascinated with planes and this is kind of a cool picture of him

as a young child.

And so the flight that he was on that wood and

end up leading to his death left later than expected.

So conditions were dark and hazy,

not to mention JFK JR was dealing with much stress

from work and with his wife who last minute agreed to come with him

to his cousin's wedding.

So he was not completely in the right

frame of mind during this time,

not to mention he was also still recovering from a fractured ankle

and he

was not completely familiar with the aircraft and even

denied an offer of someone else piloting the plane.

So the first personality theory that I chose was Freud's psychoanalytic theory.

This theory illustrates the human behavior that is a result of the id ego and

super ego parts of the mind which work together to form various human behaviors.

To place the Syrian to the context of JFK junior's life.

The events from his childhood had a great effect on his adult life,

which ultimately, whether he knew it or not shaped his personality.

This especially focuses on the unconscious,

since a lot of JFK junior's life seemed normal aside from a few things,

but there are things that caught up to him later

in both his relationships and personality.

The death of JFK Junior's father

at age three occurred during the phallic stage of psychosexual development

and relates to the edifice complex as well,

which is the complex of emotions expressed in a young child

and the desire for the opposite sex of the parents.

Which having this traumatic event occur in JFK Junior's life

may have messed up the stage of development in some way,

which can be displayed later on in his adult life.

But the

the second personality theory, attachment theory,

this theory is especially influential in the life

of JFK JR because it bridges that gap

of that trauma period in his life and the influence his mother had in his life,

which was vital for his development after losing his father,

stressful situations, can undermine this attachment.

And although JFK JR was young enough where he did not

really know what was going on around him about his father

as his mother protected him best she could with that, it still

had a substantial impact on him.

Um, and I think especially his unconscious

a third personality theory, psycho social theory of development.

Um

which there are many,

many theories within this.

Uh,

but more specifically within this theory would be

the intimacy versus isolation state of this theory.

Um,

This stage in JFK Junior's life is all about owning one's

own identity and sharing that in close relationships with others,

which I think is something that he appeared to have all together on the outside.

But again, there is this aspect of his tour himself

and that very real struggle of finding his identity.

Finding his own identity was especially hard

for john f Kennedy JR, since he was constantly living in the shadow of his father.

And I think that named Kennedy was

was a strong name to uphold, especially when there was a very large target on there.

Their families back

and his mother did everything that she could

to shield her Children from the harsh reality

of who the Kennedys were.

But ultimately it must have gotten to JFK JR in some way.

Okay,

so some research articles that go along with these theories,

it wasn't a whole lot of selection, a lot of them were

geared towards JFK his father and his assassination.

Um So I found another article by the same author as the One on Bright Space,

and it was a psycho biography of john f Kennedy

and understanding his inner life achievement struggles, encouraged

JFK JR studied his father

and tried to understand him best he could

within passing, but ultimately he couldn't do that

with him.

Finding himself his own unique core identity beyond being.

The son of President Kennedy

was a very long process that involves first knowing his father,

which this article aims to illustrate and fits with Freud's psycho

analytic theory.

The second theory. Um I used the article that was on Bright Space.

Um

and because there was a limited articles and information

on the psychological aspect of JFK JR, this article

does well to support the theory of attachment and the stages

of psycho social development in the third theory as well.

And also use that for the

the next theory

um written by the same author.

Um and it does well to illustrate JFK Junior's

true identity and brings up the stages of psychosocial

development and how that fits into JFK Junior's life.

And so, to wrap it all up

the life of JFK JR was full of optimism and influence

his drive to lead his life through his own identity was a constant battle.

It was something that never was able to be resolved

since he was unable to truly understand his

father Jeff.

To understand his father,

JFK junior's death was tragic and sudden,

but by no means was a result of the life he led,

but rather a series of unfortunate events

and impending stress from different situations.

A big part of the case of JFK JR seems to remain a mystery,

and we never will truly know his exact emotions during his last moments of life,

But his legacy and his family's legacy will live on for generations to come.
