most happy and healthy kids have a unique desire to learn and trying to suppress that is unhealthy
things like screen time, finish your plate, etc
screen time is just a limit on time to learn if the kid is using it for the right purposes which you should teach them to
“finish your plate” I was never told that as a kid and I devour anything that is given to me


I remember me when I was a teenager: I was a dumbass.
Everybody I knew from school? Also some sort of dumbass.
I was slightly less of a dumbass at 18, but still definitely a dumbass. I think that number just gets settled on because it’s the legal age where you are considered an adult (though by actual biological standards, your brain doesn’t even finish developing until 7 years later).
Is it stupid? You bet!
That’s probably the main reason for it though. More likely than not, you’ll look back at your teenage years 20-30 years later (or sooner) and realize how foolish you were. Wisdom usually comes with age (though not always).
that is YOU and YOUR enviroment
“Wisdom usually comes with age”
age is like the last factor Usually NO ONE teaches you wisdom until you are old and then you have enough time for it
This is why im so happy I grew up around extremely wise people and the catholic church
Ah, I see what’s happening here. Trolling.
am I the only catholic on lemmy?
I don’t think Catholicism is the source of your downvotes…
No one ever teaches you wisdom. Wisdom is something you gather on your own with experience. Wisdom can’t be taught or there would be a lot more of it.
