When a child does anything, he should not listen to others, unless he thinks it is good, nothing else is really good.When you always force him to do things that his intellect cannot understand, you think you have foresight, but what you lack is foresight.You gave him tools that he might not need, but you deprived him of the most useful tool he was born with—common sense.You made him a docile child when he was young, and he will be a credulous fool in the future.You always say, "What I tell you to do is for your own good. You still don't understand. Whether you do it or not has nothing to do with me. I plan it for you." It's for his own good, but it's actually paving the way for daydreamers, crooks, liars, knaves, every kind of fool who can lure him into the bait in the future and let him run amok with them.
