I'm not sure if you're asking as a business idea of to apply it to your own kids, but the explicit use of this method to controlling children's mind and hoping to mold them according to the parent's world view is a little scary IMO. I don't want to criticize how parents want to educate their children, but what's next, a hidden recording device to listen to all their conversation, transcribe them and spot conflicting opinions? Why treat kids as the parent's property? Could a child become a healthy critical-thinking adult after such a controlled and oppressed childhood?
- drdeca 11y agoI think they are speaking from a devils advocate -like perspective, rather than sincerely promoting the idea. Alternatively, they are questioning whether they need to be concerned about others implementing the idea. Alternatively they are planning on writing a satire, and they want to see if something is technologically feasible. I don't think they are promoting the idea in a totally sincere way.
- brachi 11y agoI thought the same at first, but then I remembered that many parents home-school their children among many -IMO- valid reasons, to 'protect' them from things that schools teach like sex ed. and evolution theory.
