Respect between generations



Human Rights was set up on paper but are not included in our values ​​and are not part of our identity. Mutual respect and tolerance are human qualities that have not been sufficiently developed. We like to meet, but we respect a lot.

The other is varied, can be people of other generations, religion or nationality different ideology different, different skin color, etc. Each person, depending on age and culture has a way of different worldviews. He speaks constantly of the wisdom of the elders, but did not try to understand and criticize the same way that young people speak constantly in the elderly.

Today, we are witnessing a historical moment in which the number of elderly people increases steadily each year in the hope of earning more minutes, but life is extended. More education is needed to achieve a change in attitude towards aging. Paradoxically, this is the word at conferences and in the two conferences on the subject, but everything is on paper and not in shares.

For example, in many health care facilities are encouraged to be served up and down several times independently of their people, young people use elevators without meeting the needs of elderly who are less able to use the stairs. Seniors few schools are trying to educate young people about this reality.

Therefore, children grow through the approval of this age has to do with the fear that the stage of life in which all die young should not occur. We need to enhance the experience of human dignity and values ​​of strength and outer beauty only.

This respect he enjoys, must be transformed into action and love for this group of people gave us much of what we are. At a conference where seniors invited groups of students and social areas, it was observed that the conversation that suggested that respect, the boy ran to them to beat the best place without worrying that could be injured in the race, there was also the danger that any spilled liquid could burn. The contradiction was clear that what was heard at the conference, was not part of everyday life. Not always respected gray, a cane or a person walking slowly, but rationally, this is what you do.

There are many elderly people living alone for different reasons, the family moved, died or have lost contact with them. We face a culture where the need for survival than anything else. In addition, the size of the town made it difficult for family members to visit and to live together as before.

Some old people are desperate, a woman committed suicide, leaving the following note: I can not live in this hell that has become my life. Nobody noticed until his death a few days later did not receive evidence that Leonor had existed and he was dead. What happened in this society?

However, it is important to note the differences between large and small: everyone sees things in terms of social culture in which he lived. For old time there lived a being young does not have the courage or the real merit, it was thought that the youth is a disease that marriage would cure time that overestimate the strength, beauty and outdoor freshness that age. This implies a lack of mutual empathy.

As young people do not understand the reactions of their age, they are sometimes overly critical of their culture. Children make little effort to understand grandparents grew up at a time when the phone was the only means of communication and television emerged was a wonderful event, meetings were held in the house of the lucky ones who already had television.

This is why some of the technologies that young people today have grown beyond the world of their elders who have heard angry about the excessive use of devices that young people use this form of messaging is in its frame. The social networking world does not live like the new generations. The same can be said for the freedom they enjoy and value change. This implies among other things, a wide gap between them.

Ideally, each. Try to get a little on the territory of another and so enjoy the old world and the youth because both have their own charm, in respect of each place we accept this distinction and look for new ways to integrate and harmonize our daily lives. Talk and ask can enrich and improve the real possibilities. The message drank good sense and wisdom of an old and a stir young designer. This communication may give a better idea of ​​the disenchanted world we live laugh together and enjoy the different experience each.

Education must be reversed




Through the school system (in California, Washington and Guam) has never been what I preferred as a child, but as a parent, I've learned to realize that the entire system is defined over it.

No system of government or a particular country, but the education system itself.

Traditionally, the school uses this model:
1 Decide to know what children in order to prepare for adulthood.
2 Prepare a curriculum based on that.
3 Enter the students in this program curriculum.
4 teachers have raised their demand information they need, and implementation expertise.
5 The student reads, stores the information, learn skills, and ready.
6 Students must follow all the rules or be punished. It's really important that information and knowledge. Even if it never tells them

Unfortunately, this is not a good model. Mainly because it. On the idea that there is a small group of people, the Authority has its headquarters, which will tell you what to do and what you need, and you must follow obediently, like robots And you do not have to think for themselves, or are trying to do what I do. This would be severely punished.

This is ideal if you want to be a seller and you need some skills to mainly work in this society ─ obedience skills, actually. But it is not ideal for the job market of the decade happens while people are employed less and less of a big company, and work on your own. And find out for themselves what they want to do. And learn new things by themselves, without a teacher, things are changing faster than ever before. Each month presents a technology that will change the way they work, or work in the future, and we need to learn and be able to. To the ever-changing landscape

How can we do that, or how our children learn that they can?, If they do not have the authority to tell them what they know, or learn, how, or what to do

Too often qualified trainees and will do great things after. By the school system But the system is in spite of, not because of it. We are always curious people very adaptable and can learn without authority, but the current school system is trying to put the bad. It fails because at some level, but if it succeeds, it weakens the people.

The school does not fail because it provides knowledge or skills, but because curiosity kills the joy of learning suffocated, with a brutality furious punches our desire to be independent, to think for ourselves, to learn things that interest us in reality .


"I suppose it is because nearly all children go to school today, and everything is ready for them, they look so sad unable to produce their own ideas." - Agatha Christie

However, teachers are excellent

Yes, I agree, they are. My wife was a teacher in the primary school English teacher and worked tirelessly for the heart with the interests of their students. She really wanted to teach the love of reading, and trying to do so. Unfortunately, she was frustrated by the authoritarian nature of the school board, and left. Now teach our children at home and try to give them the freedom to learn for themselves.

My grandmother was a teacher for decades. My aunt is a teacher, and she started elementary school, and now teaches children in a juvenile detention center, and she is very good instilling a love of reading. I love the teachers, and I have great respect for them.

I think we are in a system that does not work. Those who can not work, given the nature of the world as it evolves.

How can our children for a future that we expect? How can we know what skills they need, what skills are important in 10 years or 15? We have no idea what the world will look like. I know nothing. Have you? Is there a single person who knows how people work in 15 years?

I think it is impossible. And more, it's always been impossible. The labor market is now completely different from what it was when I was a kid in shorts, has three decades and found the whole schoolyard, wiped snot nose that j 'and all had to learn about the Cold War. So people do not have computers at work, at least most of them, and those who had computers were nothing we have today. Most people use electric typewriters and fax machines were not in the office. Faxes ...

So yes, I love teaching, and I think they are amazing what they do. I think you should do, but need not be a teacher but mediators.

No direct learning because when students grow, not directed in their learning, are self-taught. Remember: if you learn things today, as an adult, you learn with a teacher, or learn things for yourself? And is learning itself is not funny? Would not you like to learn new things? Do not make learning more durable than they? Storing things in school

What we learn in school is almost as important as the way we learn, because to learn the way, is the teaching of the school.


"Decided in their wisdom, the Founding Fathers, that children create an unnecessary burden on the parents' schools as prisons and torture called education are .." - John Updike

How to learn

And told us, as a recipient of information, not learn thinkers. Follow the rules. Read pages 100-132. To do the exercises. Save the information. Salts in a single test. Doing this project, because we say so, because it is fun and interesting.

To learn the ways is to learn, various supplements. It is this: learn what you want, captures what your eye, what fascinates you. To find out where to get the information they need. Read, talk to someone, find things about him. Try it. Did they make mistakes. Find out how to correct the error. Figuring out how to solve problems that arise. And repeat.

In other words, you will find the topics that interest you, and find ways to solve them.

Sometimes you have to identify problems that are not so interesting, just to solve the problems that really interest you solve. All right. That's how things work.

And here's a secret: we know how. From birth. This method of learning is innate in all of us. This is us.

If a child to do something, like reaching the top of the refrigerator, the chocolate share has hidden wants to find a way. He will find a way to move a chair against the fridge, or download a shelf next to the fridge to get the candy. Along the way he learns things about 2-3 cupboard doors, refrigerator doors, and why you do not have to on the one hand in a chair leaning, if you do not want to fall, and blues.

If a child wants to play a game, you are things like the installation and activation of a PS3, how to navigate the menus, how to learn the game to convince his mother that he rangera his room later and nearly finished begin his task so you can now play.

Children know how to solve problems when they want to do something.

No need to learn. We just need to clear the way.

And that's the problem with the schools. You can motivate children to learn, because to break them. They try to integrate rebel into a rigid system of authority, against the children of course. In fact, this is the main problem and children eventually find all kinds of creative ways to truancy tackle and fireworks with amazing doodles around the edges of your laptop instead of listening throughout history, or ingenious ways by using other technologies to communicate, such as text- messaging or iPhones or old technologies and other passages of notes.

Creativity is not dead in our children. She is alive, but come together to fight the forces that seek to destroy them.


"No reason to cry if they care situations, the materials, the problems of the child is not interested, move your attention on what's really important, and no amount of preaching or threats to come.". - John Holt

A backward education

How can our children for the future? People have written much better than I do about it. View articles and topics not on education, I highly recommend it.

To a large extent this is to break easily. Let them know what they want to learn, and you know what? In fact, would be interested in what they are learning because they have chosen. You have a passion for things that come to school not as a rule.

You will learn how to treat the problem of freedom delicious, a problem that most children do not have today. You have experience of autonomy to roll and where to get your hands dirty, something they have in abundance as adults.

But what if you are watching TV or playing video games all day? If they are not interested in math or science, and never learn? If not prepare for the job market?

These are the questions from beginners in the world of education, and I would answer them all here. They have more in the comments, I'm sure. I'm not the guy who answered these questions. Search in Google and read the school because many people much smarter and answer all your questions and more.

I will say two or three things. One thing we have to relax and not have to look like a child every minute of time with rigid rules and learning are required. It is a time that should enjoy, and children should play and learn while playing. You will learn to play well and work well with others. You will learn to discover things for themselves. You learn to love freedom and loved his partners, autonomy, responsibility, choice, time management and, yes, passion.

Two, remember what we talked about before, we have no idea what the job market of the future will need to be, so stop worrying about the fact that the preparation. In fact, stop worrying so much. Let the children learn to learn and learn to be passionate about things. This will prepare them for the future.

Three also recognize that it is not necessary to completely unremarkable. We can be intrusive when they are presenters, directors or dictators. We help children, the things that interest them and share them in a world of entertainment (e.g, computer science and mathematics) to find, might educational games, help them to solve problems, if you learn to do it yourself, lead them to the resources and people who give their mountains of information. Be there for her as a leader.

This is a big issue, and one that can not be adequately covered in one article. I will be working for another article on education in the family and the school, and how to get there and do it for you. But for today, I wanted to throw a few ideas for education, and maybe a little nervous. We should all think a little dose of trouble from time to time, I do.
