Words of Wisdom from Keir, Jeff and Vickie!

6/27/2014

0 Comments

 
Keir and Jeff are happy to give you their final issue for this year.  Last week only Keir contributed but this week, Keir, Jeff and our newest member Vickie contributed.   Enjoy!!


Question: What insights into people and human nature have you gained through interacting with the world through typing/FC that you would not have gained if you interacted verbally?

Keir:  I think previous to typing is when I gained most insight because many people doubted my retention of anything so I could hear peoples true thoughts and see their true colors.  I think people can learn most about others when you see how they treat those they think as their lessees.  I also think I have gained more insight since typing because I can ask more questions allowing me to seek insight.

Question:  In your opinion, what is the most important thing to teach a child?

Keir:  I think compassion for all gods creatures because compassion is the foundation for humanity and the basic understanding for other emotions.  As society is growing compassion is lessening at an alarming rate.  The more compassion for everyone the greater chance the earth has of surviving from the people who live on it to the earth itself which gives us life.

Jeff: I think the most important thing to teach a child is acceptance. just understanding that anyone can be dealing with isolation front he speaking world but we have little ability to initiate these interactions. I need to besse as Jeff a seventeen year old with aspirations and feelings.  Go deep in your heart and see me.

Vickie:  To shpw love To brlive in yourself family should find ti,e to help with good homework that is what helps the most To respectful to yourself and others 

FINAL COMMENTS FOR THE YEAR:

Keir:  This is not the last time you will be hearing from us.  Stay tuned and keep the questions rolling.  Be nice to people.

Jeff:  Just have a great summer and be safe.

Vickie:   Just want to do this more next year.

Vickie had a final questions for Keir and Jeff,

"What is it like in high school?"


Jeff:  Lots of stuff to learn but also homework good to learn so much.

Keir:  Its awesome because people really start to treat you your age and work on independence.  They also take your thoughts extra seriously and you can advocate for yourself better.

Vickie:  Feel excited to feed my brain

Happy Summer Everyone!!!!
