Don't rush their growth. Children should learn self-reliance. The more they can do for themselves, the less they will depend on others. Children should experience suffering, so that they will learn to live life to the fullest. Do not let them suffer too much or too little.
Nature teaches by means of bringing pain and suffering.
This toughens them up. Nature made children to be loved and helped, not to be obeyed and feared. Trying to make them good with bad means ends up making them wicked. Don't punish them when they are unable to do anything wrong, since they are innocent and devoid of morality. This passion is good insofar as it relates to ourselves, and good or bad in its social applications.
