Abstract
Primitive man lived in a social environment where there was no inequality, everyone worked together and shared everything. They always wanted to be connected to nature and society. They lived without being divided among themselves. They did not differentiate themselves from nature and society, but were interconnected. This did not alienate man from society. The class distinctions created by economic development and the promotion of private ownership and inequality by occupational divisions took over man. This led to inequalities, monopoly attitudes and authoritarian states among human beings. It can be assumed that human beings were alienated for human beings or alienated from each other for the reasons mentioned above. The purpose of this essay is to explain the alienation of children in Jayakanthan's short stories.
