One reason classical education produces more mature young people is because it introduces them to greatness early.
Students spend years around saints, philosophers, statesmen, poets, generals, and missionaries.

Modern education tries to protect students from greatness because greatness creates objective standards. But young people desperately want standards.
They want something higher than themselves to admire and live up to.

Husband’s college friend just called him up to ask to stay at our place. He’s the same guy who drove up eight hours to help us with a project on the house. Love that these good men are such great friends after all these years❤️
