I'd think similiar pains that people experience will drive them
together, not push them apart. The Dust Bowl is a good example, many people lost their land to a single Bank. Now these people are hungry, hot or cold depending on season for they have no housing, and all were migrating to California. And yes, I recently read
The Grapes of Wrath.
People are social creatures, nothing will change that. And this nature makes us find way to connect with others, and similiar pains and fears will bring a group together. So as it goes, pain has its ups and downs, but I fell that it is impossible for people to grow up without pain. Like that article Yakk posted, I would like to see how this girl will or even can develop in a world where she has no understandind of fear, pain, and quite likely self preservation. How would she see other people and their actions?
