Main Idea #1:

Summary: Adam Nash was born for one purpose that was to save his sister’s life. Children who are born with this purpose are faced with a long life ahead of them because they are going to be suffering almost as much as their sick brother or sister. People make the decision of having a child for the sake of another too quickly without much thought because they are thinking of the well=being of their sick child. Maybe before they make this decision, they should think about the long-term effect it will have on their healthy child.

Quote: And the idea that you’re a walking organ farm can’t be compatible with the lack of responsibility that childhood should entail.

Question: How will this child feel that he/she was only born to save their sibling’s life?
