When George picks up his old wallet from the Nursery and shows it to Lydia it has a smell of hot grass and blood smears on both sides of it. Now, we as the reader know that it's not possible for that to happen because no one got hurt and everything in their isn't real.

So they can't tell what is real and not real.

"They live for the Nursery..."

The Hadley's luxurious & carefree lifestyle, but it also prevents them all from being self sufficient as well.
