When a foolish parent proudly says, "My child is especially obedient," they fail to realize that this is not proof of educational success, but a sign that a life is losing its agency. A child who is required to always obey, never rebel, and never express themselves is essentially being domesticated, not growing. The purpose of education has never been to cultivate an obedient person, but to cultivate someone who can think independently, dare to make choices, and is willing to take responsibility for the consequences. If a person is trained from a young age only to meet the expectations of others, then what they lose as they grow up is not just their personality, but the ability to find the value of their own life. The true meaning of life is not to live as others expect you to be, but to find your own place and take responsibility for your own choices.
