Child's Play, or …

…they can't see the forest for all the trees in the way. 

Take this for a fact: way more than half of what created the wide awake millennial snowflake mandatory head-case set degrading the American culture has to do with the play they knew growing up. Or, to be a bit more succinct, the lack of real play they suffered being as how their play was usurped and ruined by damaged adults taking part in the war Empire Academia's Kingdom of Psychology (EAKP, for brevity's sake) prosecutes against any element of humanity not addicted to their power play of pathos perpetuated.

An adult cannot play with a child. Not really. Play is the child interacting with other children at a child's level of understanding. Only the child knows, certainly intuitively but still an understanding, his exact position on the multiple curves of personal maturation involved with achieving a sane and stable adulthood, ergo only the child can accurately pick where and what and with whom to play. 

Any adult who attempts to "play" with a child brings an adult's level of understanding, and that understanding destroys the child's opportunity to test and integrate what has been learned to date. The more the adult attempts to interact at the perceptual level of the child the more false and ingenuous the adult appears to the child. 

A fact, long established: children will by instinct do a better job of observing the adult (as an example to model) than the adult is capable of doing where the child is concerned! The child always has and always will notice the falsehood, and the consequences are obvious, and inevitable. 

The child is left to conclude that the state of adulthood is undesirable, it is to be deceptive and disingenuous, parameters in direct contradiction of any and every ethical foundation offered by any of the world's cultures. Of even more damage potential the child is likely to conclude they themselves must be damaged and defective in some manner because they do not understand why the adults have brought a deformed demeanor to their play and assume, as an example seen, that they must attempt the same!!! 

Pathos perpetuated, much to the power and profit of EAKP's campaign to rule the world by forcibly exporting their lens of mandatory mental illness as the foundation state of the human condition. 

This one? This one is very actionable. Counterattack by acting politically to take the schools away from EAKP, teach skills not attitudes, and kick the kids out on the playground three times a day for a total of two hours a day. Observe from a distance for safety, but do not intervene in their play. That's theirs, and they desperately need it.
