AI is ACCELERATING.
There is a temptation, when faced with rapid change, to drift toward fatalism.
To quietly think:
“It’s all over.”
“The machines will run everything.”
“There’s nothing we can do.”
That is not a workable thesis for living.
It is certainly not a workable thesis for parenting.
Children are not static. They are adaptive.
They are extraordinarily plastic in their early development.
They respond to environment, expectation, structure, and example.
The environment has shifted, however childhood has not.
