"At three a child is already an old man."

Reflecting on my soon-to-be-3yo, I'm happy with the values he's developed in the first years of his life. He's still a toddler and inevitably has his moments, but he's beautifully kind to those around him and can intensely focus on work he loves (singing, building, biking, climbing).

MAIN IDEA: School is not a real school..but an environment specially prepared where the children absorb whatever culture is spread in the environment.

Feel like this has changed. People do care about the society, but their efforts feel massively flawed.
