That's just so many levels of...

WRONG!!!

...that it's NOT funny. Like, haven't you heard of having children to pass your wisdom on to? Then your wisdom is NOT lost when you die! Or did you think you could last forever? Guess what? YOU CAN NOT.

What an odd buncn of claims? There's mandatory child rearing in the marriage laws where you're from?

And most societies have moved on from exclusive verbal, in-tribe only, information sharing I thought. You know, books and internets and all that.

R U Ok?

You have to realize that I did NOT mean it quite that way. *facedesk*

What I did mean is that there is only so much you can convey in expressing to other people through those other various methods. There's also only so much you can convey through speaking to other people's children. Your original meaning could very easily be lost... or even worse, perverted into something that you very much never intended.

In my opinion, the only way that your original meaning can be retained into future generations is to have your own children, and raise them such that they can understand that original meaning. Only then can you communicate your knowledge and wisdom, such that you can feel ensured in it remaining uncorrupted.

Thanks for mentioning that. I forgot to search for it earlier today. Of course, that's what I get for having my mind split with an MWO Event going on. *facedesk*

Like, not just general 'facedesk'ing, but...
