It has recently crossed my mind how babies in Libria, would be, for want of a better a word, controlled. Babies are basically bundles of uncontrollable emotion,so what methods do you believe would be implemented to control them? Would their be such a thing as 'baby prozium'? And if so, how would that work? If vast majority of adults are on prozium and lack compassion and the general emotional understanding for their babies, how in affect would they get raised to even make it to childhood? I'm just interested in what other people think on this matter...

Well, remember that Prozium is meant to curb emotions, not entirely eliminate them. After all, without some feeling you wouldn't know enough not to step into the street in front of a speeding 'bus ... or to pay attention to Father's propaganda videos. Raising children from babies is a logical necessity, and can be done wholly logically, as the (rather spotty) family history of the psychologist John Watson proves. Think of it from Father's viewpoint. [Easy for me to say as my desk adjoins hers.] You WANT young people to grow up believing in the need to repress emotion. Well, how can they believe in that if they have no knowledge of what emotion is? I think you want to allow emotionality in infancy and toddlerhood, and then to begin to train children to deliberately repress it, both in themselves and in others, and the Prozium dose is a support for this. For your possible further reading interest I have resurrected the threads "Prozium and PMS" and "Are all Clerics sense offenders?" that contain further matter relating to this.
