Their Future/ Elbow Cut

"I know you don't mean any harm.  But there's just too much talk like this.  I hear it all the time, it's been allowed to go on, and it's not right."  Miss Lucy said this concerning the kids wanted to be actors or do something productive with their lives.  She told them that they came into the world with one purpose: to donate their organs.  I am just a little confused why the kids are not scared, or they are not trying to escape the school!  These kids do not have a typical life, and they are much different than normal people.

"Don't you know?  If it's right on the elbow like that, it can unzip.  All you have to do is bend your arm quickly.  Not just that actual bit, the whole elbow, it can all unzip like a bag opening up.  Thought you'd know that."  This was said by Christopher H. concerning Tommy's elbow.  It really bothers me that he gets made fun of!  However, it seems like they do not know very much about the real world.  If Tommy did not exactly know what happens when you get a cut, then what else do they not know?
