ORIGINAL: Paladin9 quote:
[FieryOpal] And from very young children, pre-K & up to K. After that, they become unabashedly critical of their peers and others. No more unconditional acceptance. Yes and many are afraid to upset their peers. Maybe it's the school system. It's part of the loss of innocence. They get socialized to conform within the school system and learn to develop critical thinking skills. It's a necessary evil, I suppose, that has to be counter-balanced by our teaching them empathy and compassion.
