    Discussion Points1. Tim is very impressed with his brother's ability to "score a telling point" during a debate. Why is this ability so important to Tim? Does this talent help Sam in the end? Why or why not?2. At the beginning of the story, Tim is tired of being treated like a child by his family and friends. How does Tim mature as the story progresses? Are there ways that he remains childlike? Do you think Tim feels he paid too high of price for maturity?3. For a long time, Tim is too confused by the issues to choose sides. Is it possible to remain neutral in a situation such as this? Is it wise? Is it brave?4. Tired of being ruled by a too-distant king, the colonists established a democratic government which still exists today. What are the differences between these two forms of governments? Are there any similarities? Are there any historical examples of a democracy trying to rule others from a distance?
