1. At the end of the evening meal, each person in the community must share his feelings with the members of his family unit. What is significant about this ritual? Does your family have any rituals? If so, explain.
It's important to share their feelings with their families because if they have bad feelings, their families could help them have happy feelings. My family doesn't have a ritual, except a long time ago we did family-fun nights and that was fun.
2. What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages of being given a lifetime job? Your blogging buddy may have some knowledge about this topic because she probably has a job or has in the past. Ask her what she thinks are advantages and disadvantages to this type of system.
The disavantages are that you could get tired of the job, or new people could come and they could nontrustworthy. The advantages are that you sometimes are around turstworthy people and the boss could pay you good. What do think are the advantages and disadvantages of this type of system?
3. Do you think public humiliation is a good method of punishment? Why or why not? Ask your blogging buddy what her opinion is.
I say no because it can cause you to lose friends and everywhere you go people recall the accident and start laughing at you. People tell newcomers about the incident and then they don't want to be your friend. Do you think it's a good idea?
4. How would you describe release in Jonas’s community? How would you feel if release occurred in your community? What would be the pros and cons of having release?
I think it's mean. Just because you don't have a job in the community, they send you Elsewhere. The pros would be you not having to work. The cons,hmm. I don't think theres any.
5. Jonas says that it is better to talk about ways people are the same instead of different. Why do you think he feels this way? If you and all of your classmates felt this way, how would your class/classroom be different than it is now? Would people be different? How?
I think he feels that way because the way his community works. His communiy is perfect and everyone has a job (some people). Our class is already perfect, talking about that wouldn't change a bit.

6. Would you like to be considered an adult and begin training for your lifetime job at the age of 12? Explain.
Well, not really. Its makes life go faster. When your 18, your an adult, not at 12. I would like to be a kid a little longer. (after all, I'm only 11).

7. Jonas is said to have intelligence. He’s also told that he will soon gain the wisdom he needs for his job. What do you think are the differences between intelligence and wisdom? Chapter 8
Intelligence is like you got knowledge and your smart and people know your good. Wisdom is like your giving people advice. Your wise. I say wisdom goes to old people.
