Letting them think

I have often wondered why do we have such a great urge to TEACH children - to tell them what we already know - to push our GYAN onto them - to not let them think on their own - but to give them ready made solutions.....

Once mullah nasiruddin went to a money lender and asked for a loan. The moneylender asked him, "Why you want the money?"
Mullah replied, " I have a pet elephant I need to feed him daily"
The moneylender almost became annoyed and said, "If you do not have money, why keep an elephant for a pet?"
Mullah, getting up, replied, "I came for money, not for advise"

So, why .......?

Maybe because

we fulfill ourselves by filling others

your thoughts
