It’s so refreshing! To prevent illness we keep our children
unnaturally clean, which causes illnesses such as allergies and
autoimmune disorders. To keep them from harm we prevent every risky
action, so that they never learn their own physical limits and
suffer more injuries. Schools conspire to protect self-esteem by
showering praise uniformly, so that kids can’t evaluate themselves
and lose self-esteem. Ah, such a huge improvement over the abusive
parenting theories of past generations!
