“Do not bother children when they are skateboarding”
— Jordan Peterson
Simplified Meaning:
When kids are doing something like skateboarding, it’s important to let them be. They're not just having fun; they're learning important life skills. They might fall and get hurt, but that's part of how they learn to overcome challenges and improve. For instance, think about when someone starts learning to ride a bike. They might fall a few times, but each fall teaches them how to balance better. If we always stop kids from taking risks, they might never learn how to face fear, be brave, or solve problems on their own. It’s good to let them try, fail, and then try again. This way, they grow stronger and more confident.
