the birthmother.
In "The Giver," the birthmothers are not allowed to see the new children they give birth to because they are not meant to form emotional attachments to them. The children are immediately taken to the Nurturing Center where they are cared for and raised by a team of professionals to ensure a sense of detachment and lack of personal connection from the birthmothers. This is part of the community's efforts to control and regulate human emotions and relationships.

In "The Giver" by Lois Lowry, new children receive their names at the Ceremony of Naming, which occurs shortly after their birth.

Ded Moroz, or Grandfather Frost, is the gift-giver in Russia, particularly during the New Year's celebrations. He is often accompanied by his granddaughter, Snegurochka, who helps distribute presents to children.
In "The Giver," new children live in the Nurturing Center until they are one year old. They are cared for by Nurturers and are constantly monitored.

In "The Giver," jackets with small buttons and pockets are given to children at the Ceremony of Nines, when they turn nine years old. These jackets signify the transition from childhood to adolescence and the child's new responsibilities within the community.
In "The Giver," parents begin to spend more time with the Childless Adults once their children are grown, as their societal role of raising children is complete. They may also be assigned new responsibilities within the community.
Grandparents are a new idea for Jonas in "The Giver" because he lives in a community where family units consist of only two parents and two children. The concept of extended family, including grandparents, is not present in their controlled society where children are assigned to families and raised by designated parents who are not related by blood. Therefore, the idea of grandparents as ancestors is foreign to Jonas.
