Children raised in an environment in which they have true freedom will never do anything morally wrong.
That's sweet. Deluded, but sweet. Has this person ever encountered any nonfictional human children, or does s/he actually spend every waking moment living within the pages of
Little Lord Fauntleroy?
Doing wrong requires a choice to do wrong, and human beings, given true freedom, will choose right.
That's a noble view of human beings and right and wrong but, based on the history of, oh,
everything,
I'd have to say it's just the teeniest bit overly optimistic.
A child who chooses to do wrong makes this choice only because the actuals of some adult took the right choice away from him.
Has this person ever met a human child?
Hil, that site has more nuts than a Costco-sized jar of Planter's.

That's assuming that the idea of what is wrong and what is right is formed outside of societal constructs, which it can't be. The very premise of "wrong" and "right" has no meaning in a vacuum. Morals aren't the same from one society to another; how on earth can he come to the conclusion that human beings will always choose to do what is right given true freedom (whatever the hell that is)?

Sorry. Was that overly cynical of me?
OK, the same search that got me to that site now got me to an article about a family with six kids (ranging in age from young teenager to baby) who went backpacking through China. Much less head-explody.

sure, they'll choose right. Whatever is right for them, anyway.
Breathe, MM. I can't have you dying on us now.

It may have been, especially if you look at the actions of our God-fearing and altruistic presidential administration. They've always done right; it's the rest of us who believe that the Constitution isn't a piece of toilet paper who've done wrong. And boy, do they let us know....

Posted like a person who's never taken six kids anywhere.
Me, too. What universe is this person living in, and can I raise my children there?
