part two:

1.  Early in the movie, we discover that Cole's parents recently divorced. He’s attached to things that belonged to his dad (the glasses, the broken watch, and the gloves he wears because the house is so cold). Similarly, within Cole’s "tent," he has a set of religious statues. What do you think motivates him to collect these things? How were these things helpful to him as he dealt with "the ghosts" or with his classmates? When has physically holding onto something helped you get through a difficult time?   Even though Cole is dealing with some very serious problems he holds on to things to help him remember happy times. 

2.  Think about the day in the classroom when Cole objects to the way his teacher is looking at him. Talk about the feeling Cole has of being a freak, of being told he doesn’t fit in. Even if you don’t know anyone who thinks they see dead people like Cole did, can you identify people you've met or seen who others might consider freaks who don't fit in? What does this movie have to say regarding our treatment of others who may feel as though they don’t fit in?   If you don't have a certain look to you people may consider you different. Most people like the idea of fitting in so they will do what ever it takes to have the look of fitting in, in this case almost all people do not claim to see dead people so this would consider Cole an outsider or a freak. 

3.  Does Cole realize from the very beginning that his psychologist is also a ghost?  What details support your answer to this question?   Yes Cole does realize from the very beginning that he is a ghost because in the movie he tells him his secret, " I see dead people sometimes they don't even know they are dead."

4.  What finally helps Cole deal with his encounters with the dead? Is that different than what might help us deal with our encounters with the living? (Remember the question that is asked throughout the movie: Do you have something to tell me?)    Cole talks to his mom about how he sees dead people and tells her about his grandma.

5.  When Cole and Dr. Crowe are finished with their sessions together, Cole says to his mom "I’m ready to communicate with you now--to tell you my secrets." What changed in Cole so that he was finally able to talk to his mom more openly? When you have fears or secrets, whom can you tell?   He knew that his mom would be there for him and he had is final session with Dr. Crowe he knew that he would soon have closure. Whenever i need to talk to someone I to anyone older than me my parents or someone at my church.

6.  Dr. Crowe asks Cole, "If you could change something, anything--what would it be?" What would you change in your own life if you could?   Personally I don't think I would want to change anything in my life because i am extremely thankful for my everything in my life. If I had to choose I would change my brain I wish that i was smarter.

the sixth sense:

In this movie there is a doctor who is greeted by one of his past clients and the client shots him. Then the movie continues with everyone believing that he is better. He gains a new client, cole,  his parents got divorced. The little boy opens up to the doctor and tells him about how he can see dead people while he is awake and sometimes the dead people don't know they are dead. They continue to see each other and the little boy continues to talk to the dead people. Malcolm , the doctor, wants to get close to his wife but he just seems to be getting further and he has no idea why. She begins to see someone new and at there dinner doesn't speak to him. He believes that his wife doesn't know who he is anymore and doesn't think that spending all his time with cole is the best idea.  He tells cole that it is time for them to start seeing each other so that way he can fix his marriage. When he gets home he tries to talk to his wife and then the image of cole saying, " I see dead people, sometimes they don't even know they are dead." pops up in his head. Then it all clicks for him. He then understands that he is dead and then he is ready to let go. 



During the movie I never caught on to the fact that he was dead. Now that I know I can go back and there are so many times where it is obvious.
1) When cole says sometimes they don't even know they are dead. 
2) When he yells at the dude seeing his wife and he doesn't respond.
3) When they have there anniversary dinner
