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
You dont appreciate how stupid you were until you are older. Then you realize you were stupid when you were younger, and are stupid now, but over different things. If this isnt a persons experience in life, they are almost certainly a Republican. (Joke… Mostly)
This is because with a lot of things in life, you have to actually experience them to figure out if and how you could have handled it better. You dont regret everything you do, but the things you eff up, stick with you…
Former stupid kid, current stupid middle ager.
If you don’t think you were an idiot 10 years ago, you haven’t learned enough in those 10 years
