I think the relationship between Dr. Kellogg and George is integral to the plot of the entire book. Dr. Kellogg views the way George turned out as his one failure in life & constantly fights his fear of being discovered in that failure.
So, here are a few questions to think about:
1. What do you think about the "nature vs. nurture" question - can the right environment and influences overcome genetics?
2. What do you think of Dr. Kellogg's approach to disciplining George and George's response to it?
3. How does Dr. Kellogg's obsession/need to be seen as successful in every realm of his life influence the way things end up?
