Because it's so demeaning. He can be presented with the choice but he can only ever really go back to the frog pond. He could fight in the war but he was never taught to do anything but hide. He could fix his marriage but he was so young when he was cursed he doesn't know how to do anything but hide. Because his formative years -the years that define who he is and how he reacts- were spent fleeing from herons and dogs and boots. and he may have had his body back for a time, but he will always mentally be in the frog pond, with nothing to do but throw tantrums and hide and make up friends that will not speak to him.

And what lesson did he learn? He deserved it. Pinocchio lied, Ylfa killed, and Gerard understands that they had no choice, but to him, it was always his fault. Elody tells him he wasn't evil, and he doesn't hear her. Because good little boys don't get turned into frogs, and at nine?? The only lesson he could have learned was that he was evil.
