Cole’s banishment

we have been reading this book called touching spirit bear and the main character name is Cole Matthews, he has been banished to this island and our teacher gave us a question. The question was was banishing Cole to the island a good idea or a bad idea? So here is what i think.

I think that having Cole banished to the island was a good idea because in the story the keeper of the circle said jail is not to heal so I was thinking maybe that means it won’t heal someone unless they will learn from their mistakes because that’s the only way they will change, if you don’t learn from your mistakes then how are you gonna change. I also think that since the keeper agreed to that it would be a good idea because the keeper just wants Cole to change and become a better person but the keeper probably doesn’t want to hurt Cole either but I be wrong, maybe sending Cole to the island was a bad idea, who knows. Also Cole could learn how to take care of himself at the island, he will have to because hes on his on and if he doesn’t take care of himself he could die. That’s why i think banishing Cole to the island was a good idea.
