Society In The Giver
The Giver Society has changed over the years. For better and for worse. With love and hate. Each society has something unique, something different. Some with high expectations and some with low expectations. We all have heard about The Giver. A very plain and boring community. Now what does this community and our society have to offer when it comes to family, education, and careers? Which one is right and which one is wrong?
One of our most important thing in our life is family. How do these two societies portray family? In The Giver, the families are cold hearted because love doesn’t exist. According to Jonas ( a member of this community) love is a very generalized word. Now can you imagine your parents not giving …show more content…
Education is taught different all around the world but still with same principles. Education is taught and taken very greatly in The Giver. They are extremely strict about. Even more strict than us. For example, if you are late, you must excuse yourself in front of the whole class. We don’t do that. You just get a late slip. They are also allowed to hit you with a discipline wand. Just ask Asher . Everytime he mispronounced a word he would get a hit. I don’t know about you but I wouldn’t want to get hit every time I mispronounced a word. Which is a very good reason why our modern society doesn’t allow this. They used to back in the good old days but society has changed. If a teacher hits you now, they are fired and get into trouble. Education for us determines the car we are going to drive, the house we are going to live, etc. Education in The Giver really doesn’t have an effect on you as much. It doesn’t determine their house and car. Besides all of this, both of our societies for us to go to school.

Usually we are the ones that choose what career we want and how we plan to get there. They can’t choose their own careers. The Elder choose for them. Even if they don’t like their job they don’t get a choice. For example, Jonas didn’t know what he wanted to be and he got stuck with Reciever of Memory. Us on the other hand aren’t forced. If we want to work, great. If you don’t want to work then don’t. Still, both societies need people to work so they can help out the community. If you need a doctor, the clinic is right around the corner. You should be able to choose your own career.
Family, career, and education are our building block to our future. I believe that you should be able to write your own story on your own and not be forced to do what you don’t want.
I guess each society is different but it’s up to you. Do you want to be trapped in cage or free like a bird. The choice is yours. Which society do you
