Thoughts on Learning

I'm utterly convinced that if babies react to falls, pains and failures like adults do, they'll never walk or learn to find their balance, let alone make sense of the world around them.

So at what age did we all really fall? I wonder.

Ironically, we wonderful adults are the ones teaching the babies to "get up, it's ok...."

I'm also fully convinced and persuaded that every normal child has the potential to be a genius, or is one, until the day they enter formal education. Almost all of them anyway.

Who is there to take the blame? I really wonder.

"Not many of you should presume to be teachers..." James 3:1
