Quote by Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr

“Be careful of how you discuss money in front of your children. Never speak of household finances in terms of lack or scarcity in front of your kids. Only speak of household finances in terms of goals and wealth in front of your kids. Your discussions about money will either enrich them with wealth consciousness or cripple them with poverty consciousness.”

“Latency is all about socialisation, making friends, and developing independence; if children are glued to screens, they are at risk of becoming socially isolated.”

“Most parents wouldn’t dream of handing a biscuit tin to their child every day and letting them help themselves to as many biscuits as they want. But many parents don’t think twice about giving their child unregulated access to a digital device”

“Most kids are raised to do what they're told, to follow rules, to stop asking why. They're taught to stop asking "what if". And this is exactly how we breed generations of human beings who are incapable of being their own persons, who are incapable of invention, who are incapable of innovation, who are incapable of exacting progress and change in our world. Teach your children to ask why, to ask what if, to learn rules but then to form their own rules and to break the ones that do not serve higher purposes. Raise your children to become their own persons and to build doors where none were found before.”
