Children

Teach them that there are rules to be obeyed

October 2nd 2025
Parents and teachers must not show themselves to be weak with children, otherwise the children will take advantage of this weakness through no fault of their own. If children are never taught that there are rules to be obeyed, and if from a very young age they are under the impression that they can bend everything to their whims, how can you expect them to obey the great laws of nature later on? Such children will not obey, which is only natural. They will defy everything and everyone, wreaking havoc all around, even to the point of hysterics rather than give in. Since this is how they have been brought up, they are not to blame.
So it is up to the parents to be vigilant, sparing no opportunity to teach their child all the little lessons likely to make him think. The child may cry a little, but the parents will comfort him and he will have understood, and for the rest of his life he will know that there are laws that must be respected.*
