How does Jonas react to the children's war game in the book called the giver?

Answer 1

In the book "The Giver" Jonas witnesses his father take and weigh twins. The larger twin is cleaned and sent to be dressed. The other twin, although he is only a tiny bit smaller, is chosen to be released. Jonas is relatively unaware of what will occur. He thinks that his father is giving the infant his shots. His father injects a chemical into the infants fontal. The infant cries very hard and then dies. Jonas does not fully comprehend that the infant has been killed until he sees it put into a box and dumped away like garbage.

Jonas is devastated and angry. He does not understand how his society can end a life and dispose of it like garbage. Jonas was willing to hold the memories of the people. However, his witness of the release is the turning point for Jonas. The rest of the story progresses because of his new knowledge.

Answer 2

He thought of it as something bad and painful although the others cant feel pain.

Jonas is the only one who reacts this way because he actually knows the pain of war and how people die of it since the Giver transmitted this memory to him and that is why Jonas declines to play.

Answer 3

Jonas is shocked and horrified by the children's war game, as he has no concept of violence or pain in his society. He feels disturbed by the casual way the children treat the idea of war and killing, which is completely foreign to him. This experience contributes to his growing realization of the darker aspects of his community.
