This question needs to be looked from two perspectives.
The first perspective is that of the characters from the book, The Giver, themselves. From their perspective it is possible as we can see from the novel when they almost showed no emotion to the news that Gabe will be released. This is due to the circumstances of the book where everyone is thought to be detached and they do not even understand the concept of love. Only Jonas gets attached to Gabe.
Second is our own perspective and it is nigh impossible for a person not to get attached to a baby for whom it is caring at least a little bit. The emotional attachment develops quickly for almost all of the people. So the contract in the real world probably would not work at all.

Answer:
Ok listen, how do you know everyone has read that book?? Also this website is for asking questions that people would have a short ish answer to, not for asking people to write whole freaking essays.
Explanation:
I'm sorry.. I know what it's like when you really really need an essay done, but no one on here is going to. Maybe if you read the book and payed attention in class you'd know how to. Good luck to ya though. :)
