Superheroes
Backman expounds, “She (Granny) used to be a doctor, and she won prizes and journalists wrote articles about her and she went to all the most terrible places in the world when everyone else was getting out. She saved lives and fought evil everywhere on earth. As superheroes do." Superheroes partake courses that liberating for the beneficiaries. Granny's professional career is impressive for it predominantly entails rescuing people. She depicted bravery by venturing into precarious localities, a fact which renders her an ideal champion.
Chaos
Elsa deliberates, “Basically, Mum is orderly and Granny is chaotic. Elsa once read that “Chaos is God’s neighbour,” but Mum said if Chaos had moved onto God’s landing, it was only because Chaos couldn’t put up with living next door to Granny anymore.” Granny is predominantly unruly which complicates the course of controlling her. Her chaotic disposition could be attributed to her advanced age.
Dysfunctional
Elsa recalls, “They argue a lot, Mum and Granny. They’ve been arguing for as long as Elsa can remember. About everything. If Granny is a dysfunctional superhero, then Mum is very much a fully operational one.” Dysfunctionality alludes to Granny’s insanity which contradicts Elsa’s Mum’s sanity. The insanity hinders granny from being reasonable and compliant to Mum’s wishes.
