We used to be careful not to frighten our children. We thought that if they thought they were safe, they would grow up to be happier and more productive.
Of late, we have been scaring the crap out of our children. The last three years, we have made them afraid of their own damn breath, and the breaths of others. We taught them to never share their crayons or toys. We taught them that climbing into their Granny's laps could very well kill their Granny. We have made them feel they are poisonous, that their friends are poisonous, that not being able to breathe is a good thing.
Our children already suffered from a long list of things that might be wrong with them, such as a slew of mental illnesses or learning disabilities that supposedly sets them apart and below all those other children who do not chafe under the extreme duress of public schooling, where they are constantly compared to others via grading. A great many of them are found to be lacking and very few excel.
Where they once felt they were merely lacking, they now downright fear, and possibly hate, themselves. Is there any wonder that many more of our children are suffering from depression and anxiety than they did a few years ago?
But the question I really want to ask is
Are we going to do this to our children again, the next time our sorry ass governments, or unelected and mostly self-appointed lords of the universe (WHO, WEF, DAVOS, CDC etc) tell us to?
SAY NO
