Been thinking again, while watching the villagers with fish walk right over the children having lessons....maybe some pathways, and a different area for the school, somewhere where they are not so distracted by everything going on around them.
I had an esteemed elder (one of her skills was master parent)teaching the kids yesterday, and she got distracted by the first male to walk past..she left the kids and went chasing him.
I didn't have her set on parenting...once they become elders I let them decide what they want to do, if anything....and this 71 year old knew exactly what she wanted to do.
