Children: Our most valuable natural resource.

The gender biases that shape our brains
My daughter is obsessed with all things girly and pink. She gravitated to pink flowery dresses that are typically marketed for girls before she even turned two. When she was three and we saw a group of children playing football, I suggested she could join in when she was a bit older. "Football is not for girls," she replied, firmly. We carefully pointed out that girls, though in the minority, were playing too. She was unconvinced. However, she's also boisterous and loves to climb and jump, attributes often described as boyish.

How to communicate with children?
In daily life, the world of adults is to a certain extent separated from the world of children. This is a phenomenon that we cannot ignore, and at the same time, it is a law that no door can be crossed. Because of the different habits of the two groups and their perceptions of the external environment, which eventually lead to fragmentation and mutual lack of understanding between the groups, this phenomenon is common. One part of the population recognizes this phenomenon and tries to regulate it, while the other part does not understand it and does not treat it differently in terms of perception. Of course, this group refers to adults, because adults can speak out, while children are not.
