Wendy Moira Angela Darling is a fictional character and one of the
main protagonists of the 1904 play and 1911 novel Peter and Wendy by
J. M. Barrie, as well as in most adaptations in other media. Her exact
age is not specified in the original play or novel by Barrie, though
it is implied that she is about 12 years old or possibly younger, as
she is "just Peter's size". As a girl on the verge of adulthood, she
stands in contrast to Peter Pan, a boy who refuses to grow up, the
major theme of the Peter Pan stories. Wendy hesitates at first to fly
off to Neverland, but she comes to enjoy her adventures. Ultimately,
she chooses to go back to her parents and accepts that she has to grow
up.In the novel Peter Pan, and its cinematic adaptations, she is an
Edwardian schoolgirl. The novel states that she attends a
"kindergarten school" with her younger brothers, meaning a school for
pre-adolescent children. Like Peter, in many adaptations of the story
she is shown to be on the brink of adolescence. She belongs to a
middle class London household of that era, and is the daughter of
George Darling, a short-tempered and pompous bank/office worker, and
his wife, Mary. Wendy shares a nursery room with her two brothers,
Michael and John. However, in the Disney version, her father decides
that "it's high time she had a room of her own" and kicks her out of
the nursery for "stuffing the boys' heads with a lot of silly
stories", but changes his mind at the end of the film after he returns
home with his wife after the party.Wendy is the most developed
character in the story of Peter Pan, and is considered a main
protagonist. She is proud of her own childhood and enjoys telling
stories and fantasising. She has a distaste for adulthood, acquired
partly by the example of it set by her father, whom she loves but
fears due to his somewhat violent fits of anger. Her ambition early in
the story is to somehow avoid growing up. She is granted this
opportunity by Peter Pan, who takes her and her brothers to Neverland,
where they can remain young forever.Wendy finds that this experience
brings out her more adult side. Peter and the tribe of Lost Boys who
dwell in Neverland want her to be their "mother" (a role they remember
only vaguely), a request she tentatively accedes to, performing
various domestic tasks for them. There is also a degree of innocent
flirtation with Peter which incites jealousy in Peter's fairy Tinker
Bell. In Barrie's book Peter and Wendy, Wendy asks Peter at the end if
he would like to speak to her parents about "a very sweet subject",
implying that she would like him to speak to her parents about someday
marrying her. Wendy Darling Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
