Key Notes:
Hear Rabbi Jack and Rebbetzin Shira Melul discuss the importance of education. Talking about how educating yourself can help you educate your children and generations to come. As a result helping shape and change the world.
In a short video both explain how children are prone and wanting to do and act as their parents do and act. However, not all educational styles work. Based on a few examples of famous rabbis, they explain that a way to educate a child is through his and her own way. Showing a child what to do is more effective than telling a child what to do. Through that they feel that acting a certain way and doing certain things is their decision, and as a result they stick to that behavior.
The same applies to us as young adults and adults as a whole. When you educate yourself by doing you learn more. By learning more you feel more. When you feel more it sticks to you longer. In a sense, your heart is drawn after your actions.
The key to education is education. The most powerful tool we have for educating our children and future generations is to educate ourselves.
