This is a Mind Map of what peoples fears are when it comes to growing up - I asked friends what their main fears were surrounding the topic of growing old. This became the starting point for the research.

This particular article above drew me into and led me to the idea of this project; how humans are innately fixated on remaining youthful. I found this insight into 'Peter Pan' really interesting as it made me think critically of how our perceptions change as we get older, through the way my thoughts on the story were very innocent as a child, however, as you get older the darker side to life becomes more apparent.
