Autonomy & Infinite Jest: "Children" & "Adults" in Pursuit of Pleasure

JonathanBoyer

"But see that here it can't be a Fascist matter of screaming at the kid or giving him electric shocks each time he overindulges in candy. You can't induce a moral sensibility the same way you'd train a rat. The kid has to learn by his own experience how to learn to balance the short- and long-term pursuit of what he wants . . . He must be freely enlightened to self." Infinite Jest, p.429
