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.
