I am fascinated with this topic. I believe this is the key to world peace: Treat our children with love and respect, discipline them with dignity and reason, empower them with love, and the next generations will see peace.
Not just peace among nations, but peace in individual hearts. Happy, well adjusted people don't turn to drugs or therapy to feel better. They don't turn violent.
I think soon that violence of children will be a thing of the past. That will be a day of world peace.
It sure is a good start, but I do not think that it guarantees the outcome you want, by any means.
There are, after all, countless cases of kids who had a good upbringing who then proceeded to inflict great pain on themselves and others.
The reverse must also be true.
Not necessarily Karnal, because there is a lot of hidden abuse and violence in children's upbringing. This, many kids who we might suspect had "good upbringing" actually did not. Check out Alice Miller's book on this topic. It's called For Your Own Good.
Thanks for the discussion!
