Kind of, but they know the rules, It is well established, and, Unlike some places, This place is a Community. That's what communism is made for. It is made for Community's.

Haley - Lily, I do agree with you, although I don't exactly think it's that they lose track of their age, I think it's the fact that there is just no need to keep track of it, and they can always look in the hall to see how old they are. Although, I get what you are saying, and I completely agree otherwise.

i agree with rainie because some times people want to have 3 kids or more                              maurice

Yea cause the whole community is taking the pills after the stirrings

Myron, What makes you think the pills hides the truth? That's a good insight! The pills do seem rather creepy, right?

When I am reading the story, I really like that Jonas is trying to get used to his life, even if he is a 12 and has lived there for a long time. Its like he is trying to break free from the community, cause the place is run by someone that wants to make sure everything is just right, and that they are making sure it is from a very young age. But they don't kill the people who do it wrong, they just teach them the right way. ( Sorry I went on a rant there)

Okay so, I think that it both promote's and Limit's freedom. Cause later in the book, I can't spoil it. But there is something that happens. But where we are now, It is like, You move farther away from your family with the bike. But its not going away from the community.

Choice, It really feels like what I said about Freedom. Cause later in the book, again, spoiler's can't tell. But in the earlier story, it is like, the community makes the choices for you. Like your job, but that is based on how you act as a child, and what you do. What you are best at.

Desire. I think it limits that. The stirrings? Yes that is desire, but that is more of a... that... desire. But stuff is given to you, at certain times. So when you want to ride a bike before nine's ( I think it was ) you could not, at least, not in the open, and also if you want to lie, its against the rules, and if they find out you will get in trouble.

I like the way you were thinking

# data[].attributes.body
I think it is a bad thing because people should choose how many kids they want to have

# data[].attributes.body
thanks Gavin I completly agree with you

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
no its up to the parents how many kids they want

# data[].attributes.body
misty, i agree with you, because it seems like most people in the book do not get the choice of being released or not, they just have to listen to what their leaders, who are essentially dictators say. and also releasing babies just isn't right.

# data[].attributes.body
Rebecca and Rainie -- Do you think it's a good thing they can only have 2 kids? (They do it for population control - to help the Earth.) Do you think it's messed up?

Lilly - There is a rule that when you turn 12, you get assigned a job for the rest of your life and you lose track of how old you are.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Rainie because they cant pick what the what to do in there life. like the book says two Children one male, one female to each family unit. It was written very clearly in the rules -Rebecca

# data[].attributes.body
Lilly - There is a rule that you're only aloud to have one girl and one boy to a family. You wouldn't be able to have a big family if you wanted to.

Haley - In "The Giver", the structure of society limits their freedom, choice, and desire, by setting so many sets of rules, and not giving people any rights. The committee tries to limit their imagination by not teaching them different colors, different seasons, or even what 'Love' is. They assign children at the age of eight to start volunteering hours and at the age of twelve to finally start their official job. They don't provide any real freedom to the people in the community, since when you try to leave, they 'release' you since you are no longer of any use to them. Anyone who does try to escape the community without being released will be tracked down, as seen later on in the book with Jonas. Not to mention, if you get three strikes you are released, while in the real world you would just get some time in jail, depending on what they did. To sum it up, the people in the community have little freedom, not much desire for anything, and in my opinion no choice. I believe the committee just gives them the illusion of choice. (Sorry I know it's long)

they are trapped there-Hayden

# data[].attributes.body
charlie. it limits freedom because  they are all on a specific time,and all do the same thing at the same time.. most of them would all do the same jobs,but the chief would choose what you did, you didn't have  a real choice.you couldn't choose unless you were a certain age.

De'Andre i think your  right because if they break any serious or many minor rules as it says on pg 3 Needless to say, he will be released'' when the pilot frightened the whole community for messing up his directions

# data[].attributes.body
Gavin I agree because the people really don't have a lot of rights when you sit down and actually think about it.I don't think I would like to be on a set schedule that I have to follow because that would be like controlling me and I could never do the things I'd like to.You risk getting released if you don't follow the schedule which would be stressful.Not being able to pick your job,or clothes would feel like somebody trying to control the way I dress.The fact that most dreams are crushed really makes me feel like back then people didn't have a lot of hope so I agree with you Gavin.

Keira- It limits freedom by the kids having to start adult hood when they turn 12, as well as not getting to pick their own assignments but instead get handed one. "What's important is the preparation of adult life, and the training you'll receive in your assignment".

# data[].attributes.body
zariah......they could only have 2 children a boy and a girl

# data[].attributes.body
the society has rules you have to follow or you might end up released. you can only have two children, one boy and one girl. you also can't pick what job you get to do, you have to be assigned. when you are given your child, the child comes with a name. -Kyleigh DeHart

# data[].attributes.body
Aubrie- Jonas' society does not give them much freedom because they have a lot of strict rules. They also get assigned their jobs witch limits them to the freedom of choice to do what they want. If someone messes up they only get 2 reforms before they get released. They have to wear certain clothes until a certain age and every thing in his community is carefully planed out to be "perfect".

It limit's freedom by categorizing student's by the year they were born instead of there knowledge not to mention the fact that you have no control over what you want your job to be (in other words R U L E S)

In the giver the structure of society limits freedom,choices,desire by not letting them pick there jobs and they cant have specific things unless you are a specific age and no one thinks for them self                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Maurice Metz Sacrison

Rebecca- It limits freedom because you do not get to chose your job the committee chose for you. Also it limit what you can desire. you can only have one girl and one boy to a family.

Jonas's community takes away the freedom because people can't pick anything they want to do, the community has to pick it for them and there are a lot of limits in the community. -Rainie

There are release times for elders and children.

# data[].attributes.body
Makayla Manley- I think the structure of society limits freedom, choice, and desire because when the book talks about people being "Released" it is almost as if they are like caged animals. They also can't choose their "assignments," there children and the child's name, or who they are going to marry if they sign up to have a spouse.

# data[].attributes.body
Its organized and has lots of specific rules.

# data[].attributes.body
the structure of society in "The Giver" limits freedom by not giving the people any rights, but instead a set schedule that everyone has to follow, or risk getting released. it limits choice by not letting the people choose their jobs, cloths,and basically anything else. it limits desire by essentially shooting every single desire, or dream down by just giving them a job, and a schedule, and telling them "this is how it is gonna be." So it is essentially a dictatorship, and i completely disagree with most parts of it.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 -Gavin Whallon
