"A brain problem? Why would he need to be born with a brain problem to think differently? There's three generations involved: Russetfur, Sandheart, and Glow. Glow is not insane, neither is Russetfur, but Sandheart is because her father was."
--
I was talking about Sandheart's father. The crazy man.
Was it enviornmental?
"Why can't she be whole-heartedly devoted to her daughter and her beliefs? That's like saying I can't be devoted to a certain pastime if I have a child. Glow was her main priority in life, but she also wanted to get out of the enclosure."
--
Insanity isn't a pastime.
"I don't understad why it's not reasonable."
--
I can tell.
"But why isn't it reasonable for Sandheart to want out?"
--
Because this is her entire reality.
How many people do you know who are convinced they can hop into a parallel universe? And I don't mean as in wondering about as science fiction concept for a book or something. They actually devote themselves to attempting it.
"The point is that Sandheart wanted to give her daughter a different type of name."
--
Why?
"She was fascinated with the portion of the sun she saw, her daughter resembled the sun in color, so she was named after it."
--
I understand why she named her kit Glow. What I was asking about is the lack of a suffix.

Sandheart's father was crazy, but not nearly as so as she was.
She was just insane, as you would put it. Now that I think about it, it probably would be a mental disorder. She was obsessed with trying to get out because of her fascination with this parallel universe. Sandheart's father fed into her craze by telling her that there was a way out.
And because of this mental defficiency, she didn't belied in te traditional format of names she was brought up with. She didn't understand why there had to be a suffix attached, so she left it at Glow.
So I guess instead of saying Sandheart was a devoted mother, could we say Glow's father mainly raised her?

--
What made her worse?
"And because of this mental defficiency, she didn't belied in te traditional format of names she was brought up with."
--
I don't understand the connection.

mmkay. Why didn't he add a suffix?

Sandheart's father just believed there was a way out. He was analytic, and wanted Sandheart to do the work for him and find the way out for him so he wouldn't have to 'dirty his paws'. Sandheart had an inquisitive personality, coupled by her father's encouragment and her mental defect, resulted in her being the ultimate crazy.
Sandheart had a mental issue. When they are 'mental' they don't think right. She wasn't thinking what RiverClan would've called 'right' by not giving Glow a prefix.
And as for Glow's father, he didn't care what she was called. He just shrugged it off, being a careless cat. He didn't think it would do any harm to not give get a suffix because he just had a lazy personality.

"Sandheart's father just believed there was a way out."
--
What do you mean, "just"?
"He was analytic,"
--
How so?
"Sandheart had a mental issue. When they are 'mental' they don't think right. She wasn't thinking what RiverClan would've called 'right' by not giving Glow a prefix."
--
That doesn't relate to escape, though. That's just deviating from the norm, and even crazy folks have reasons for what they do. They're crazy reasons sometimes, but they are reasons.
"And as for Glow's father, he didn't care what she was called. He just shrugged it off, being a careless cat."
--
Did he shrug off making sure she got fed and learned to hunt, too?
"He didn't think it would do any harm to not give get a suffix because he just had a lazy personality."
--
It doesn't take extra effort to call her Glowkit.

'Just' as in there was no further extent to his craziness. He was analytic because that was his personality; he was a calculating and intelligent cat.
Sandheart did have a reason. She couldn't be bothered to add -kit. She, or did Glow's father, have the decency to properly mentor Glow. They didn't want to constanty change her name as se aged because her father was lazy and her mother was too occupied with trying to get out.
Sandheart deviated from the norm because she thought sufferer (by thinking there was a way out) acting different (not bothering to give Glow a suffix, flingig herself at walls).

--
You make it sound like he was in control of his faculties, so to speak.
"Sandheart did have a reason. She couldn't be bothered to add -kit."
--
It's not like she had to fill out an addition of suffix form and submit it with proper postage. What was her reason?
"She, or did Glow's father, have the decency to properly mentor Glow."
--
...I assume you're saying neither of them mentored her.
So who did?
"They didn't want to constanty change her name as se aged because her father was lazy and her mother was too occupied with trying to get out."
--
I don't see what you mean by lazy. Did her father have short-term memory issues?
"Sandheart deviated from the norm because she thought sufferer (by thinking there was a way out)"
--
Thinking sufferer means thinking there was a way out?
I'm confused again.
