Pearl vs witchery

Pearl seems to have this air of creativity which gives me a very modern child feel about her. Pearl seems to be ahead of her time for as far as children of that day go. With these creative gifts though Pearl also gives a feeling of insanity, or as Puritans would've viewed it witchcraft. She doesn't help her case by scaring off children with her voice or having conversations with herself in different voices. I believe that society is to blame as for what Pearl is becoming. Since she has been labeled by parents, their children will label her the same and continue the cycle of rumors. My point is that Pearl seems to be welcoming a possible demise.
