You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers. -John Plomp.

You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.

If you wanted to create an education environment that was directly opposed to what the brain was good at doing, you probably would design something like a classroom. If you wanted to create a business environment that was directly opposed to what the brain was good at doing, you probably would design something like a cubicle. And if you wanted to change things, you might have to tear down both and start over.

Independence isn't doing your own thing; it's doing the right thing on your own.

If I had to make a general rule for living and working with children, it might be this: be wary of saying or doing anything to a child that you would not do to another adult, whose good opinion and affection you valued.

Perhaps it takes courage to raise children..
