UNWIND #3 Part 2

Risa overhears two nurses debating law and human nature. Which argument do you think is stronger? Why do you think this? Write a paragraph explaining your thoughts on law and human nature. I think that human nature is more stronger because humans are what makes that laws so what our opinion is will affect what the laws will turn out to be.

This section opens with a mother abandoning her newborn infant on the doorstep of a house in a good neighbourhood. As she leaves, she thinks "How wonderful it is that she can get a second chance. How wonderful it is that she can dismiss her responsibility so easily."

In your opinion, by allowing new mothers to give up their children so readily, does it take away from the value of a child?  No, I think that the child should have value even if the mother gave up on them.  It was never the child's fault. Once the mother got pregnant she had a whole responsibility to own up to. 

What is the role of a mother? Do you think the title of mother is something that should be earned, or a natural right of the woman who gave birth?  Natural rights

What skills or attributes do Connor and Risa have that work well together?  The determination to not get caught by police, teamwork, risk worthy. 

Connor and Lev have very different experiences with storking. How has this helped shape each of their attitudes toward the society they live in? Conner is familiar with storking because he lived in a family where they often got storked.

Connor is concerned the baby won't be loved, and ultimately will die, so he takes it. What does this show us about him as a person?  That he is able to show sympathy for others 

What makes Lev realise he doesn't want to be unwound? Pg79. Pastor was trying to help him even though they both knew it was dangerous.

Each of the other characters on the run has a tragic background story. Why were Hayden, Roland and Mai set to be unwound? Which, do you think, is the most tragic? Explain your response. The most tragic would be Roland because he was born in a family that was abusive and unstable. He had to protect his mother from his abusive dad. 

What tattoo does Roland have? A tiger shark
