" Disgraceful? But what do you mean? They're being death-conditioned. And I tell you, she warned him truculently, if I have any more of you interference with their conditioning, I'll send for the porters and you thrown out" (Huxley 203).
In arguing on both sides of how scientific and technological advancement benefits humanity is demonstrated when John get angry at some of the children that come into the hospital to be conditioned on the topic of death and they keep coming towards Linda's bed and disturbing her and John. John tried to get the nurse to remove the children from the hospital room but she would not allow it because she saw that it was no the children that were the problem it was John who was disturbing their conditioning. The positive affects of death-conditioning children at fairly young age is as they older the children will know how to react when someone they are close with is sent to the Park Lane Hospital for the Dying which means that a person will not return to the brave new world society once admitted and that they will more likely be forgotten by the people close to them. The negative affects of death conditioning children at such a young age is that when someone such as John is visiting someone close to them in the Park Lane Hospital for the Dying, they will be disturbed continuously by the loud children asking many questions such as why are the people in the beds in the hospital to begin with and will not leave the people on their death beds die in peace.
