I think the first quality you should be cultivating in your children, if you want to have a free speech culture...

is curiosity and an awareness of the vastness that will always be unknown.

And getting my kids excited about the idea that's like, we're going to spend our whole lives learning about stuff.

And it's fast and exciting and endless, and we'll never make a big dent in it, but the journey will be amazing.

But only fools think they know everything.

And sometimes dangerous fools at that.

So giving the sense of intellectual humility early on.

Also, you know, saying things that actually do sound kind of old-fashioned.

But I say things to my kids like, listen, if you...

enjoy study and work, both things that I very much enjoy.

I do for fun.

Um, your life is going to feel great and it's going to feel easy.

Um, so some, some, you know, some of those old fashioned virtues are things I try to preach.

Um,

Counterintuitive stuff like outdoor time, playing, having time that are not intermediated experiences is really important.

And little things like I talk about in the book about when my kids are watching something that's scary.

And I'm not talking about like zombie movies.

I'm talking about like a cartoon that has kind of a scary moment and saying that they want to turn the TV off.

And I talk to them and I say, listen –

I'm going to sit next to you and we're going to finish this show.
