"Even from their infancy we frame them to the sports of love: their instruction, behavior, attire, grace, learning and all their words azimuth only at love, respects only affection. Their nurses and their keepers imprint no other thing in them"
- Michel de Montaigne
About this Quote
This quote by Michel de Montaigne recommends that kids are raised and taught to worth and focus on love above all else from an extremely young age. Everything from their clothing and education, to their habits and words, is directed towards cultivating love and romantic relationships. The caretakers and parents of these kids impart this fixation with love onto them, leaving little room for other worths or interests to establish.
"At the heart of the Reggio Emilia approach is the belief that children are full of potential, competent, and capable of constructing their own learning"
