Even accepting your claim that they were twisting the children's words, there's no indication they relayed any of that analysis back to the children. Then they did use legos in a teaching exercise (one that I bet will stick with them), then they brought them back in a healthier way.
It sounds like your real complaint is you don't agree with the lesson they taught, or maybe even just the language they used to describe it. If so you should say that, not pretend they didn't try.
- UnpossibleJim 5y agoThe lesson is what it is, I am neither here nor there on that. I think you're placing a false morality on my motives about that. I'm saying they used negative reinforcement as a knee-jerk reaction and then, as an afterthought, brought back the Legos instead of having a discussion first and taking action second. They learned that action and punishment comes first and the discussion and concession is an afterthought, a problem all too prevalent in modern society.
