Our first 7 years of personal growth and development are very important
Decades ago, I learned a bit about phsycology while studying for my teaching qualifications. But thankfully A I wasn't a blot on our lives back then.
Can you remember when you learn't this,
Can you remember which biology or physics class in school, you were taught about this?
Your life is created
Every life journey begins with a foundation, and personal development is no different. The first seven years are pivotal in shaping who we all become, but strangely, not many recognise that, but qualified teachers do.
Think about this:
Having lived and worked in Thailand for over 5 years, and travelling the whole country in my truck, I constantly saw the truth as to why "ladyboys" are so prevalent in Thailand.
The culture in Thailand certainly appears to operate around the patriarchal system, and males are deemed to be 'higher ranked' compared education to females.
1. Man likes young lady
2. Man decides to 'spend time' with young lady
3. Young Lady becomes pregnant.
4. Man disappears.
5. Young Lady is now a single mother, but her own mother, her mother, her sisters, and her female friends, help to raise the newborn boy in a female dominated home.
7. Ladyboy.
8. young lady is old lady when she reaches 30 in thai 'culture' so at least she'll not have to worry about the next hardworking, responsible, home provider called Man any more.
There is no "free schooling" in thailand, so that's not really an influence on a child's development.
And all this while the little boy's father is very busy consuming many bottles of homemade "Lao khao" (Thai rice whiskey, e.g moonshine) so he can meet even more young ladies, so that the whole process repeats again, and again.
So in my opinion, the question, in western culture, is quite simple:
Are 'transexuals' biologically born, or made.
Think.
Very briefly, here's how the human brain develops
In the first 7 years of life, the brain is effectively a sponge. Understanding brain development in these formative years is crucial, but when/why are we not taught this?
Recognisihg and appreciating the intricate processes that lay the groundwork for cognitive and emotional growth is also important, as this early period influences learning, behaviour, and how we interact with the world around us as we grow.
Helping your children to develop well
By understanding the significance of early development, parents and guardians are better armed with insights to support their children's growth, encouraging a strong foundation for a lifetime of learning and contribution. So whether your son grows into the next remembered and celebrated 'genius' or thinks he's a girl who likes dresses, really is your making, and your decision.
You reap what you sow.

So have a read, and most importantly, have a think.
