Not strange at all. One needs to look at both sides. In terms of system thinking, nothing but positive feedback is dangerous, negative feedback allows adjustments to counter it. Education is not indoctrination. If you son is smart enough to be reading this stuff, he’ll figure out what is true and false himself.

How much fun would FreeRepublic be if all we did was agree with each other?
