The consequences of the strict rules in "The Giver" include limited personal freedoms, suppression of emotions, and a lack of individuality. These rules aim to maintain societal order and stability but ultimately lead to a loss of humanity and diversity among the citizens.
I'm not a hundred percent positive but, I believe if a minor rule is broken you just have a gentle chastisement (criticize).
I know where you live O.o
In "The Giver" by Lois Lowry, people who do not follow the rules in the community are subjected to punishment based on the severity of their actions. This can vary from public shaming to being released from the community, which is a form of exile or even euthanasia in extreme cases. The consequences are meant to maintain the stability and conformity of the society.
there rules were to go choke on the ball
The rules in "The Giver" are particularly puzzling because they limit personal choice and freedom in an effort to maintain control and create sameness within the community. This strict control contrasts with the emotions and memories that the Receiver of Memories experiences, leading to confusion and curiosity about the value of individuality and emotional experiences. The rules also create tension as characters grapple with the consequences of breaking them and the implications of questioning authority in a seemingly perfect society.
Jonas' most relentless fear in "The Giver" was the fear of failing in his role as the Receiver of Memory and bringing chaos to his community by challenging its rules and beliefs. He feared the consequences of revealing the truths about their controlled society, as well as the pain and suffering that came with holding on to the memories.
it's puberty
Some of Jonas's weaknesses in "The Giver" are his naivety, lack of experience with difficult emotions, and his willingness to challenge the rules of his society without fully understanding the consequences.
Jonas is able to see beyond the strict rules and regulations of the community to understand the value of emotions and individuality. The Giver, who transmits memories to Jonas, can see beyond the controlled and limited experiences of the community to remember the depth of human experience. Jonas and the Giver both see beyond the facade of a perfect society to recognize the sacrifices and consequences that have been hidden from the residents.
the difference is that Rules are for undesirable behaviors that have set consequences while procedures are expected classroom behaviors with no set consequences for a violation.
its not fair because people should have some freedom to things they want and do
The giver rules share similarities with our societal rules in terms of maintaining social order, regulating behavior, and ensuring harmony within a community. Both sets of rules are meant to provide structure, promote fairness, and guide individuals towards certain values and norms that are deemed important for the well-being of the group. However, in The Giver, the rules are more extreme and controlling, reflecting a dystopian society where individual freedoms are sacrificed for the greater good.
