@Mikey - Our "DNA" is about creating copies of ourselves, raising children to become exactly like us. That's fine if you're already a shining example of society, but not so fine when you're struggling or you're in a profession that's about to go the way of the dodo bird.

This sounds like a blackpill to me

Parenting classes could be about constant intergenerational improvement. Focus on generating more cognitively capable kids, so that society will be able to continue growing.

Our DNA is to care and raise a child in a good environment. These are helped to be enforced with good family values. We don't need your proposal of another pointless lesson when the moment you create a family, you begin to realise that it takes effort and time to raise a child right.

The jews

Have released me

((()))

What you are proposing is basically just a parenting help book. <:smugon:512048583806025739>

@Mikey - If you're a farmer, or a hunter-gatherer, or a factory worker in a steady job that's going to be there fifty years from now, then everything is fine. When the world is in flux, not so fine.

@Mikey pls explain how family values are necessary to reintroduce if they're so natural

If they just magically appear when you start a family, why aren't they appearing?

What's with all the single thots

Because of the culture we currently live in.

Oki so use parenting classes to change thst

Or, just teach people the value of the family. Which we don't do anymore.

And raise the quality of future generations because they were raised better

You don't need parenting classes

Why not

Family values are too overhyped by the SkepticsTM

Because when there's a family, it'll come naturally.

What the fuck does it matter

School is for retards anyways

You are advocating for state funded parental help books <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

Yes

That's exactly what I want

Only the childhood needs to be fulfilling

A little bit of a kick in the butt for young teenagers to give them some kind of preparation for starting family life

Human nature, particularly when it comes to parenting, is about creating more copies of yourself. Imperfect, not quite the same, but still extremely similar. There's a reason for that: Most humans, at most points in human history, have been a great fit for their environment. They didn't need to change. They just needed to keep doing more of the same.

When the requirements of human success and fulfillment change, traditional parenting is not enough, because having kids become their parents is pretty much guaranteeing that they're not gonna fare well.

It'd be better than fucking English class

Or sportsball

Old people at any point in time: these young kids are gonna fucking ruin everything!

...and then the kids become almost exactly like them.

^

Most kids become their parents. There are exceptions, but exceptions do not make the rule.

>young kids: ruin everything

>surprised pikachu!

Society is still chugging along

Barely lmao

Barely wot

Barely. We need to focus on the cultures that work, and get more people on board with them.
