Detailed explanation-1: -George is supposed to be in charge of the house and the nursery, but he can no longer change the scene on the walls by thinking of something other than the veldt—only the kids can.

Detailed explanation-2: -The parents, George and Lydia, are to blame for their own deaths because they gave their kids everything they wanted. In the story “The Veldt” by Ray Bradbury, the parents bought a SMART house that has a nursery with virtual reality.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the story, parents George and Lydia Hadley spoil their children and virtually never say no. A nursery in the Hadley’s house has the power to transform into anything the person inside wishes. The nursery was stuck as an African veldt with lions, eventually trapping the parents inside and killing them.

Detailed explanation-4: -On the most basic level, “The Veldt” is about a family going through the typical problems that arise in family life. George and Lydia are parents who spoil their children, and then try to discipline them by taking away the toys they originally spoiled them with. In response, Wendy and Peter begin to hate their parents.

Detailed explanation-5: -What controlled the nursery’s images? The images were controlled by your thoughts. Why does Peter lie to his father? Peter lies to his father about the veldt scene saying that he has never seen a veldt in the nursery.
