Now I have read the book till chapter 5 and one learns more about the strange community.
What we get to know:
- The Elders make observation, they know what you do in your life also in your free time
- they established harsh rules for example:
> they have a regulated life:
> eyerybody has to talk about their feelings with the family
> all the children get their bicycle with the age of nine
> The family must have 2 children, one male and one female
> the people have to go through the same steps in life
> the community established the volunteer hours
> they make a plan for your future ( decide your job and your friends)
> It is against the rules for children and adults to look at another's nakedess; but the rule did
not apply to newchildren or the Old.
> unusual children can be "released" and the old people will be "released" -a decision of the community
( We have a strange feeling with the word "released"... maybe it is something like "to kill")
> the people get pills when they get their first Stirrings. The pills will stop that feeling. (This example shows
that the people are manipulated)

I think you sum up the important informations and I agree with this, but maybe you can chance the text type, because it needs a lot of space, although it looks very nice.

But how I said: Good work and to notice the rules could be helpfull in the following chapters.
Well done! :D
It is strange that the Elders make plans for one's future, isn't it? I mean - what's your choice then?
