And it's just interesting to remember that that's the way it was for most of time.

Do you, I mean, this is way too simplistic a question, but is it better for your kids or the kids who stayed in the village and are one of 45?

Like health care.

Danini, like Sarah Herdy, brought a depth of history to the conversation.

So she was such an important element to every conversation because she reminded us of those very old ways of being that most people have abandoned and dismissed as irrelevant or luxuries for time-rich people.

And that is not necessarily true.

You know, one of my favorite things about your story is that—and you didn't say it on stage, I just happened to know it—

is that when your kids come back, the first thing they do is go to the village.

So she used to take them to the village, you know, and travel the ground along with them.

But now they can get there themselves and they go home.

Something I keep thinking about, thanks to Danini, is how many people live a very different adulthood from their childhood versus how many of us just kind of roll on and do it more or less the same way it was done to us.

So why did you not want to repeat your childhood?

Because that's what this moment is going to take.

I mean, we are going to have to potentially be counterintuitive in our moves.

We're going to have to make up a different future where the future is just going to roll over us.

It's just going to smother us.

Our individuality and our special values that we hold so dear are just going to get snuffed out by this giant AI blanket that's going to come down on top of all of us unless somehow we can dodge it.

I don't mean to sound like this naive white person from America, but I would love to have raised my kids like that.

All these other women that I love and

fact and count on and all that interdependency and all that like all those little kids running everywhere and just like the which is completely different than being in an American neighborhood like as you said at the top it's not you don't know your neighbors I mean thinking of AI sort of puts me out of the the whole idea why are we discussing AI in relation to motherhood
