It has been a long while since I observed my child's swimming. Usually, I will bring my book and a cup of tea to relax by the poolside. Now and then, I will just take a glance to make sure they are alright. This morning, I observed them for a while and I realized her swimming skill has improved by leaps and bounds. It was a self-taught skill. And me, (sigh) I still don't have the guts to do so.
"Freedom to live and to think about life for its own sake is important and even essential to a child. Since we can't know what knowledge will be most needed in the future, it is senseless to try to teach it in advance. Instead, we should try to turn out people who love learning so much and learn so well that they will be able to learn whatever needs to be learned." -John Holt.
