All this to say, my main concern for my kids is that
they end up decent human beings who have respect for
themselves and others - the rest will follow in its
own time.

This is brilliant and exactly what children need to be taught-to be themselves, love
themselves and accpet themselves. If they do, everyhting esle will come. people who
accpet htemsleves and love themselves will accept and love others.Children are not
here for us to mold into what we want them to be. It would seem tbnat to many children
are to be controlled and molded or else they will grow into something monstrous. The
end relsut of this conroll and ,molding is that we end up with children who cannot
accpet others, who are full of fear and hate, and who turn out to be just what we
didn't want.
