    This shows that character’s reaction prevents bad stuff because… If their reaction is being controlled they could react differently to the way, someone else reacts to something like getting tackled “I’m sorry for tackling you” “nah it's okay”. In the Giver everyone basically says “I’m sorry” to the person, and that makes people feel good.
