Pai looses her innocence in a different sense, but the significance is similar to that of Holden. When Korro, Pai's grandfather, is upset about how things are not going well with trying to find a replacement Chief, he remarks to his wife,"When she was born, that's when things went wrong for us." It is constant acts of aggression like this that causes Pai to loose her innocence and see that her Grandfather virtually hates her and has always shown remorse towards her ever since she was born. However, just as Holden sought to fix his problems, Pai remains headstrong and continues to advocate for herself and rebel against the tradition of her tribe. On the other hand, while Pai and Holden's coming of age lead them to be insurgent, Kathy's realization of her life's purpose only result in her to comply. When Kathy is remarking about her teenage years at Hailsham, she says,"Certainly, it feels like I always knew about donations in some vague way, even as early as six or seven. And it's curious, when we were older and the guardians were giving us those talks, nothing came as a complete surprise. It was like we'd heard everything somewhere before" (7.27). Even though Kathy's loss of innocence was a gradual effect, she still understands that her purpose in life is to sacrifice herself for well-being of someone else. However she never tries to escape her fate, even though it is something that she does not look forward to and attempts to defer by first becoming a carer; she knows that her life is depressing, but she doesn't to anything to disobey, because she doesn't know she can. In terms of innocence, when Holden and Pai are compared with Kathy, it is clear that while the Holden and Pai both overcome obstacles and make decisions regarding their fate accordingly, Kathy has no experience with being able to freely express her opinion and a such never truly acts on it, because she doesn't know that there is an alternative.
