He's right - we can expect so much more out of our chidden than our culture does. Not only are our kids capable, but also they are designed to be productive contributing individuals. If we recognize that then I think the teen years are much smoother. Thankfully my 12 yo son already has 4 1/2 of these 5 skills, but it reinforced that we do need to find an opportunity for him to learn to hunt. Good stuff to be reminded of, especially with the younger children coming up. Thank you for sharing this. He’s right – we can expect so much more out of our chidden than our culture does.

Doesn't really tell me anything I don't already know. A nice guy, but really, couldn’t that whole video be boiled down into 5 bullet points? Doesn’t really tell me anything I don’t already know.
