And how much freedom can you give? And to have that interplay. But as well, as a mother as well, I do like structure, but as well, I give our child a lot of freedom. I'm the auntie that is, he can do whatever he wants.

That's the type of auntie I am. She's amazing auntie. Every time when I come here, I'm very present. She lives above me. She's got an apartment above me. It's a mess here. So that's perfect for the child too.

He's like my partner. My partner is all of, I live and the child needs to follow me. I love Uncle Jerry. I think both are important, of course. But what I do think that a lot of time we give children a little bit too many rules. And we know about this creative genius of four-year-olds. They measured four-year-olds. Most of them, they're creative geniuses. And what is that?

Of course, the brain is developing, but it's also this playfulness and this imagination that we can still have that if we don't stifle it too much. And I really believe that we can do it through play, through openness, through see whichever choice you make some mistakes here and there. That's actually very important.

And that's what I also find it very important to let the child as well make the choices. Make sometimes a mistake. But of course, you're the one advising them. In the long run, it can happen that these are the consequences at a certain age, depending on, of course, the age where they are in. But let them make the mistakes as well.

So I do think that, yeah, give them just a sense of control, the sense of agency as well in that sense. And then sometimes it ends up a little bit different than they want it. But if it's manageable, if they can become then more resilient, for example, I think it's a very good thing to do. You know, the Spartans, I like this story. That's so much the Spartans.

I like it. But they threw their children out into the forest at age seven. That's when their brains, their unconscious part of the brain have been fully developed. And I thought, oh, that's interesting. At that moment, They threw them out into the forest and then they had to survive for a whole year alone. And only when they survived that year, they could come back to the clan.
