I think the challenge is that it is people of our generation and older that are
The teachers and the administrators and the policymakers and the law and the people who write the laws and do all these things.
Right.
So that it's why it's become relevant is because like this is a generation that needs to be convinced because it's not quite natural to them to believe in this idea.
That our social intelligence and our emotional intelligence is actually more relevant to our human experience than our like intellectual intelligence.
You know, that's a hard sell to some people, you know, who are of our generation and older.
But I bet you if you talk to, you know, people are millennials or Gen Y or whatever.
Kids, my kids would be like, yeah, like, that's not a hard idea at all for them to accept, you know.
So in that sense, I can only speak to like, again, my experience here in the United States.
But I do think broadly, because we are a much more connected world globally.
That probably, you know, there is a generational artifact about how socially, emotionally naive our generation and older are.
I don't know that that's actually a rule.
I think that's a historical kind of thing that swept up a couple of generations here in the United States where we're just like, it's just a foreign idea to us and we have to like learn it in our adulthoods.
Well, I think, you know, first and foremost, I think to encourage parents that all of our children are already innately social, emotional beings.
So this is not really a sort of like curriculum thing that truly needs to be introduced because it is innate.
It's natural.
It is how they are because we're all human beings and we are innately social, emotional beings.
So what we're really talking about is almost like the resistance to the idea is the problem.
And so I think if you are already a parent who feels
understands the value of your kids emotional experiences and you recognize that the quality of relationships that they have starting with you and the other sort of like caregivers in their life
