In Vonnegut's story "Harrison Bergeron," George thinks about his son being in jail (before the sound of a 21-gun salute distracts him). What label has he clearly accepted as a description of his son, and why does he think of his son in this way?

1.He regrets that his son has become a poor example to others because of Harrison's lawlessness.
2.He believes that his son is normal because George knows that he and Hazel are not normal.
3.He thinks of his son as abnormal because Harrison doesn't follow the rules like everyone else.
4.He considers his son as a criminal because Harrison has clearly broken the rules and been imprisoned.
