I read McCammon’s Swan Song in 6th grade, terrific post apocalypse novel. Guess I should check out his other stuff.
Having seen pictures of feral children, those hidden from society and not given the chance of socialization, education, or even humanization, I think it’s okay if we work out a little bit of the wildness. And lest they yearn for the mines maybe we can educate them just a bit?
But I appreciate the sentiment.
I think there’s a valley between uncomprehending magic and comprehending magic. Its actually a central theme in one of my favorite novels.
I think more (but less shitty) education is the solution here.
Agreed. One of the coolest things that animals do, including humans, is educate their young. From birds to baboons, offspring watch and learn from adults to become better versions of themselves.
