At first, I felt like that, but then I considered the impact that HIV has in Africa. It is taking away parents and teachers at a rate that is nothing short of devastating. I mean, if you were a child and most of the grownups around you were dying off due to AIDS at the rate they are in Africa, maybe you would want to understand what is going on. I thought this was the purpose of the character.
