Peterson is a gift from God.
Hes in Minneapolis next week, our son requested tickets for his 17th birthday. We bought three: birthday gift for him, graduation gift for our oldest and Fathers Day gift for my husband.
Im a bit jealous and so are our daughters.
Right now I dont anticipate college pursuading our oldest to drop his conservative position. The seventeen year old is obtaining a technical degree as a post secondary student. He views that training as a way to fund his future musical and intellectual pursuits. He believes passionately that college is a waste of time and money as you can learn anything from the texts themselves, no need for a classroom experience.
I may have floundered through parenting, but so far their reason and logic is intact. At least regarding public policy. Their logic regarding a clean bedroom or accountability for their whereabouts with friends is still lacking!
I often post about striving to attain that sweet spot
where our emotions are in balance with our rationality.
Peterson is at or very close to that balance point.
