Yeah that was my point, it needs to be taught.

The article seemed to indicate that humans have some innate goodness: "Our internal intuition about right and wrong seems to leave us at an early age". If you agree with that then why do the parents around you need to teach your kids to be good/care.

>> "Again, it doesn't feel that hard to me, but I'll respect that it feels alien to other's nature."

Thank you for "respecting" that being a good person is "alien" to me and my kids.

If you want to insult me just do it. I guess a snark filled "clever" backhanded insult does track with your self-important view of your child-rearing abilities. Are you teaching your little angel those skills as well?

I feel like my comment was either misconstrued or misunderstood and don’t have anything to respond after the inflammation at the end of your comment there.

For the record, I don’t know anything about you or your kids.
