Someone gave me a really nice compliment today.
They said I would have really "deep-thinking children" that "won't take things at face value."
That's the plan man.
And that's why marrying the right woman is so important. The woman I choose has to be down with it. She cannot retard progress or be lazy. I screen for this in the dating process.
I don't want to raise humans with malformed minds. I do not trust private school or public school with my children's minds. We're going to educate them ourselves.
I estimate that I have around 1,000-2,000 books in my library. I've only read about 25-27 books this year. I'm really behind with my goal of 52 books in 2021 but more important things interrupted me. But I'm curating a list of books I want my family and friends to read -- books that should be read a least twice and internalized.
I want my children to be beneficiaries of my personal teaching and guidance and inherit my ever-growing library.
She doesn't have to have my extraordinary reading goals. But one of the things she has to be about is educating our kids.
