[–] 1 point 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (4 children)

an anarchist analysis would say that’s a bad thing.
child liberation theory is a thing

I need you to reflect, how, why, and when. MLs, esp. guardians know when those liberations can be applied. For when, why, and∗ how you exercise those liberations is how those children will praxis and react in the future. Until children can just be born with all the knowledge and practice to be independent, Vanguarding them is in our selection as a species.

    I don't know what this means. Someone not knowing how to liberate themselves and learning it from someone who does is not a state of them being under the power of the teacher. Teaching does not inherently entail restriction in autonomy and is only an assertion of power to the extent that we allow it to be.

    Also, children's liberation is absolutely a thing and you can/should read about it.

    Educating the next generation on how they too have to liberate their own children is crucial vanguardism. This includes teaching children how to dearrest, defend, liberate, organizeds, intersect, aid, etc.. MLs are highly aware when, if ever, they’ll be able to do so for their comrades, and future comrades.

    The theory of conceptualizing consequences and reflecting is a cognitive skill not many realize. Being ablemto formulate actions and review results is what allows us to progress.

    None of this relates to my point though. Everything you mention here is possible (and as an anarchist, necessary) to carry out while treating the children as equals and not infringing on their autonomy.
