You ought to train a child in the way they should go but that being said giving them a fair, and objective education which exposes them to different modes of thinking could help them relate to different people more easily, or help them be more objective in their thinking perhaps 🤔.
Discussion
How you choose to raise your children -- i.e. "Which stories do you share with them?" -- is what the original topic was.
I am saying that the ancient stories were generally better stories, that gave us higher ideals to aspire to and fostered a sense of the noble.
Me personally, if I ever had children I would raise them with a Biblical understanding first off but I also believe in the principles of education, and knowledge, and would have them learn many literary topics, and books of varying groups, and worldviews, etc.
If they decide that The Bible isn't true then so be it but I believe it is so, however if I am incorrect, I want to ensure that my children have the best opportunity to find the more accurate information than what I know.
There's no real point in giving your children popular culture, since they'll live seeped in it and it's generally devoid of any intellectual challenge or logic.
If you train them to read "Die Nibelungen" or Cicero, then they can read and understand everything else, but that doesn't work the other way around.
Are we getting the Laeserin Culture Sheet.
(Jokes aside, I would be interested if you did post something like that).
You typically seem well rounded in the topics you discuss which is why your notes are more interesting than most.
My handle means "the woman who reads", in German, as I've read a lot.
Old and REAL stories were the best. Today they would be cancelled. We live in an exception state, where wrong is right and right is wrong.
Raising kids traditionally and drawing the line between men and women and their role in society is very important but it is alien to “common society “. This type of “rooted” kids are rare these days.
I believe the second law of newton will save us. Root, tradicional, parents and offspring will come back. I just wonder what’s the price they will have to pay.
I’m already paying a high price for being “old school”. Imagine them trying to go back to their roots. It will be worth it.
