What was unusual about Rosemary's release The giver?

In "The Giver," Rosemary's release was unusual because she requested to be released rather than being selected by the Elders. This act was a rare occurrence, as most individuals in the community were not aware of the true implications of release. Additionally, the way in which Rosemary was released, through a painful and traumatic ceremony, added to the unsettling nature of the event.
