Interactions
I have been listening to archived audio from NRK (Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation).
One of the statements that resonated with me was Anne-Cath. Vestly talking about one of her reasons for writing children's books: Modelling interactions between adults and children that are primarily an interaction between human beings - where people do not fall into the predefined roles of "adult" and "child".
It seems that this is good to keep in mind for all our human interactions. Do we interact as human beings - open for each other as we are - or do we fall into predefined roles?
