Ahh those kits, they look so cool but there's not a lot else you can use them for XD
According to Smallsteps, it will sit on the table for every race :)
So was it F1 in your family like it's footy in some other people's families?
Not so much in the whole family, but we probably watched more than most at the time. Galen is well into it though :) My family weren't really the sports type when I was young however - I was the sporty one.
which all of them had eventually realised as grown ass adults and were trying very hard to fix
So much of adult life seems to be trying to get over childhood. We should have better ways to firstly raise kids, and then, deal with the issues early and move on.
Is selfishness a past baggage? As while there is definitely a lot of baggage for a lot of people some seem to be just straight up self centred.
You know, I think it is. I don't think kids are inherently selfish, but if they are raised in a transactional relationship, doesn't it also mean that it would work like a business trying to maximise "profit" by getting as much as possible?
Most people will parent exactly the same way they've been parented (if it was good enough for me it's good enough for them because too lazy/stupid to do better I guess) and the ones that try to do different are going to make different mistakes. Some issues aren't going to come up til later and some issues are going to get caused by trying to stop/mitigate issues later. And this parenting technique that worked wonders for one kid will completely and utterly fail for their sib. There isn't a consistently better way, it's just having to consistently get better. And that's probably way too much hard work for most people.
I have now spent a decent chunk of my life researching learning styles and methods and child development with forays into parenting methods and I really don't understand why people adore sticking "purely" to any one particular thing so very much
Hmm, that last paragraph contains a good point.
