I sense mockery in your email, and it does not conform to the PSF code

I don't find teaching children is a laughing matter, neither is the idea
of children learning to code.
In Canada, we have initiatives like Girls Learning Code and Kids
Learning Code. I mentored in a couple of those events and the students
are girls aged 8-14. They surprised me with their abilities to learn. I
would suggest looking for such mentoring opportunities in your area to
gain appreciation with this regard.
Thanks.

The RUE was allowed to insult the community for years and got away with
it. I'm autistic, stepped across the line, and got hammered. Hypocrisy
at its best. Even funnier, the BDFL has asked for my advice in recent
weeks with respect to the bug tracker. I've replied, giving the bare
minimum that I feel I can give within the circumstances.
Yours most disgustingly.
Mark Lawrence.
