Many parents try to protect their kids by teaching them that the world is a dangerous place.

6 studies: people who believe the world is generally good and safe have better mental health and more success.

Kids can learn to see most people as good and still guard against the bad.

If you’re so afraid of what a dictator might do if he loses that you’re letting him win, it’s time to reevaluate both your strategy and your character.

As a rule of thumb, recognize effort, not ability, and recognize ethics over achievement.

Recognize the learning process, not just the outcome.

Recognize curiosity, perseverance, and a growth mindset over the completion of tasks.

Lesson 3: Indifference

Kids learn “not to care about anything too much,” Gatto says.

As soon as the bell rings, kids are forced to turn their interests “on and off like a light switch.”

[Ana Lorena Fabrega @anafabrega11]

In Gatto’s words, “Everything I teach is out of context.”

No wonder kids are confused about how things fit together.

This results in countless students graduating with a volume of academic junk that doesn’t prepare them for the future.

In the past, kids played from sun up to sundown. Now, their schedules are as packed as a CEO's…

For future kids to have more happiness, they *need* more freedom and less restrictions.

“We can’t work 12 hours a day, seven days a week. We need time to sit down and focus our minds on other places, and recharge. A lot of ideas come when you’re not working, when you’re sitting down and relaxing.” - Dr Aaron Jarden https://t.co/PD4P0ofBdy
