I didn't want to teach my kid how to read, so I used to read to him at night and close the book at the most interesting part. He said, โWhat happened then, daddy?โ I said, โIf you learn to read, you can find out. I'm too tired to read. I'll read to you tomorrow.โ So, he had a need to want to learn how to read. Don't teach children how to read. Don't teach them mathematics. Give them a reason to want it. In school, they're working ass-backwards.
Jacque FrescoDon't get mad at me cause I call something a 'nothing thing'. I mean it's nothing in terms of the majority of people.... I'm not that concerned with my son. I'm more concerned with all people. I look at all people as brothers and sisters. I have no priority for members of the family.
Jacque FrescoPerhaps the most significant thing a person can know about himself is to understand his own system of values. Almost every thing we do is a reflection of our own personal value system. What do we mean by values? Our values are what we want out of life. No one is born with a set of values. Except for our basic physiological needs such as air, water, and food, most of our values are acquired after birth.
