TS, the reason for us saying this story is flawed is
because
1.) The aim of ur story is educated vs un-educated. The mouse
upsets this balance, it is like asking 2 men to dig trenches the
fastest, one uses his hand, the other one, u give him a shovel.
Then u argued the one who uses his hand is too stupid to ask for a
shovel.
2.) If u insist on the mouse, u could have stated it earlier in the
story, for example, "The maze creator show them the maze which he
has been using it on his mice.........when they entered the maze,
they found a mouse but the educated man jump to the signs and
symbols immediately, etc, etc"
Then at least, u demonstrated the educated man ignore his
surrounding.
3.) What has love for family got to do with this? U mean the
educated man don't love his family?
