But since they have to take the pills that stop you from having Stirrings\/feelings. It has become obs0lete in Jonas&#8217;s time. For example back then, if the person you love gets released, you wont accept it and want to get released with them. Instead of a celebration of joy, you will feel pain and sadness. This will make the community chaotic, because everyone will be doing and feeling different things, which will make it a mess. When Jonas&#8217;s dad corrected him and said to use the right language, Jonas was confused , because he had his own meaning of &#8220;Love&#8221;, that his parents didn&#8217;t know about. His dad corrected him by saying &#8220;Do you enjoy me? Do you take pride in my accomplishments&#8221;? His answer to Jonas was yes.
