Let them learn at school whatever they learn to pass the examinations, but at home let the education that you provide be the kind that widens their perceptions and takes away the germs of prejudices that infect them while they are out in the world.

About This Quote

Should we allow children to learn what they are taught at school? Should we let them learn about the world as they know it and then teach them that the world is a place where people are divided into groups with different beliefs, where one group is superior to another, and that the only way to be part of the group that is superior is to try to convince others that they are inferior? Of course not. We should teach them that everyone is equal and that differences are what make life interesting.
