The previous post “The Role of Parent” is full of questions about parenting. Not because I wouldn’t have answers, because I do have them for myself, but because parenthood can be filled in completely only by the parents themselves. Everyone will have some opinion on how it is handled by you and that is actually not interesting at all.

My biggest concern to put it this way is just that no attention at all is paid to child rearing during the education we are all required to receive. So much is known about the results of different ways of parenting, so much is known about the positive and negative effects on children, that it would be logical to instill that in all children before they enter into parenthood. But no, the only way to get this information is to start reading and studying books almost alternatively and in addition specifically choose a different kind of education. The latter is then also made difficult because you then have to pay for it entirely yourself. The government that takes care of us clearly indicates what you should choose, it seems.

A side note regarding education; it has changed from right to education to compulsory education. Hmm, interesting. All children seem to need to be pushed, squeezed, molded and formed through the education system as much as possible. This is what our government seems to enforce. The cry of uniformity comes to mind. Is that what we as parents want for our children?

In the previous post “The phase of Adulthood” I mentioned, I’m going to talk about parenthood.

How do you choose to have children? Did you feel the unstoppable urge to have children, maybe you had a kind of knowing that children are the most important thing in your life? Did you feel like you didn’t know what to do with your life if you didn’t have children? The idea that children would make your life complete? Was that instilled by your parents or by fairy tales and other stories from your childhood or is it the media that spotlights this as a perfect life? Or is it just nature and can we think of it whatever we want, it is and remains no more and no less than nature?

If you ask me I am of the opinion that this is how it works in nature. The people who do choose it can think of all the reasons why it is a good choice and those who do not choose it do exactly the same, they can think of all the reasons why it is a good choice. The fact is that babies are born.

As a human being, as an avatar in virtual reality, you go through different phases. You are born as a baby and you continue to grow to toddler, child, adolescent (teenager), adult, senior, just to name a few phases. No matter how you look at it, you are going to go through this.

The previous post on free will “Probability and Free Will“, tries to explain that as human beings we cannot choose anything we want, but there is space of choice within which you can choose. That sounds tedious, but if you read that post back, you will understand what I mean.

In this post, I want to talk about the “adult” phase. Why? Because this is probably the phase of most of the readers of this post. So I hope it will appeal to you.

The new science, epi-genetics and energy psychology, are making it clear how we are formed as humans, how our beliefs are formed, what we think is normal, that this is all stored in our subconscious, and that more than 95% of the time we make our decisions, our choices, unconsciously. Or in other words, how consciously do we actually make our choices. Are we actually using our wide range of choices?

And if we are in a learning environment for consciousness, am I learning what I wanted to learn?
