NO vs. GO....

>>Who is telling their kids NO?

I am teaching empathy by example to mine, as is Rambi. There you GO again Frederick with your ASSumptions.
YOU were saying children would LEAD us. Teaching them, whether by example or otherwise is not allowing them to lead, it is training them to follow a good example. You are now contradicting yourself.

Why am I not surprised?>>

NO conflicts with GO.

NO asserts/embraces power/control/dominance.

NO does not let others lead.

GO asserts/embraces risk/freedom/humiliy.

GO allows others to lead.

NO is above looking to a limited/definable "down."

GO is below looking up to an unlimited/.

Children live in the world of GO.

Adults live in the world of NO.

Big difference.

Frustrations, irritations.

NO = TIME/CONTROL/EGO

GO = PRESENT/LETTING GO/LOVE

And there's that knee-jerk sound bite that's liberally used to declare victory of NO over GO...."No go."

Peace.

GO!!
