Phase 2: Blog 3

There's nothing keeping them tied to this baby anymore. They could stork it again first thing in the morning.... And yet the thought made Connor uncomfortable. They don't owe this baby anything. It's theirs by stupidity, not biology. He doesn't want it, but he can't stand the thought of someone getting the baby who wants it even less than he does. His frustration begins to ferment into anger. It's the same kind of anger that always got him into trouble back home. It would cloud his judgement, making him lash out, getting into fights, cursing out teachers, or riidng his skateboard wildly though busy intersections. "Why do you have to get wound so tight?" his father once asked, exasperated, and Connor had snapped back, "Maybe someone oughta unwind me." At the time, he thought he was just being funny.

Connor should feel sympathetic for the little infant that has been storked, because they're both in similar situations. They've both been abandoned. Although Connor was raised in a heartless community, the should still be able to sense that little spark in his heart to save this baby. If Connor decides to stork the infant again, then he's just being a hypocrite He's being unfair and he's doing the same thing that his parents did to him, and he's doing the same thing that the baby's mother has done to it. This child is unwanted, and it is unfair to those people who spot the child because by law, they have to keep it even if they don't want anything to do with it. This reveals that people in the future are inconsiderate, selfish, and ignorant. The laws of the community are jokes, and the people do not have any emotions. They are going to evolve into society, and do what others are doing, and start unwinding their children for the littlest mistakes.
