Yes, even though it's a bit late, happy sixteenth birthday, Morny! It's a wonderful age. You have plenty of time, strength, and energy. The best thing is that you can still choose where to direct them.

The years from 0 to 6 were the happiest in my life.
To us, burdened with the weight of knowledge, soiled diapers seem disgusting and repulsive. If only we could remember how interesting they were to study in childhood!
A child's feces are the first thing they produce in their short life. Isn't that something to be proud of! It's all their own! Right into a brand new, shiny potty!
Behold it with admiration, you conceited parents! Don't wrinkle your noses! Don't show that your spoiled sense of smell is used to completely different odors! He's waiting for your reaction like an artist who has painted his first picture! It is in these seconds that his future is decided! And if you are so foolish as to rush to take away the creation of your child, without showing your approval in word or gesture, the child, in confusion, will want to study more carefully next time what it is that he produces, what the closest people are not happy with. And hiding it away under diapers, and secretly kneading it thoroughly in his hands, and tasting it (Of course! How else can you get information when you are not even a year old!), he will, of course, come to the conclusion that he is not capable of anything worthwhile. It goes without saying how this will affect the self-esteem that is just beginning to form.
PS You have to live. And most importantly, you have to love. Then there is meaning. (c)
PPS Not everyone will understand what has been written above. This is a free interpretation of the course of the university program of the Faculty of Psychology.

Военное дело просто и вполне доступно здравому уму человека. Но воевать сложно.
