The Proxy Problem: Why Money, Voting and Diplomas Won't Save You | HackerNoon
Briefly

The article discusses how traditional methods of discipline, intended to educate children through fear and punishment, have become detrimental to their development. Originally, pain served as a vital teacher for survival in primitive societies, but this approach did not adapt to the evolution of civilization. Instead of nurturing curiosity and wisdom, these methods have devolved into abuse and emotional volatility, crippling children's ability to learn and thrive. The author advocates for nurturing awareness over punishment to foster genuine understanding in children and break the cycle of dysfunction in parenting.
