The overarching idea that you were I
think hinting to which is in general
when it comes to raising our children,
how much exposure should we be giving
our children and how much sheltering
should we be giving our children. And
the argument of course for sheltering is
simply we don't want them to be exposed
to these things. If we could take a
child and lock them in a room and have a
little slit in the door and feed them
and there's a bedroom you know the
prison cell model, then of course
they'll never struggle with pornography
and they'll never struggle with vaping
and they'll never struggle with alcohol
and they'll never struggle with with
anything. On the other hand, the
argument for exposure is well one day
they're going to leave your home and
that's not how they're going to live and
of course that's not a healthy way to
live anyway. And so we want to make sure
that they're exposed and they can gain
good understanding even if it's through
some mistakes of what to do, what not to
do and how to handle life, how to cope
with their emotions and how to make good
decisions. And it's only through
exposure that you can really teach them
that first hand. So we want to
procrastinate how fast we give our
children certain abilities that require
self-control like a smartphone. We do
not want to rush that process. But the
point is that procrastination we don't
want to rush into these things, but when
it's time we also don't want to
delay further inoculation. We want to
use it in in a form of an inoculation
where we're giving it in proper doses,
we're not over giving it.
