Israeli Kindergarten. Dual-income couples often arrived late to pick up their children. As a result, the kindergarten implemented a rule that parents would face a fine if they were late; however, even though this introduced a penalty system, it also led to more delays in pickup times. By replacing feelings of guilt with money, paying a fee for being late became the new norm. After recognizing the mistake and removing the fine system, what happened? More parents started arriving late. When money becomes involved, the exchange of value fundamentally changes the nature of the relationship. And once that change occurs, it doesn’t revert. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Humans are disappointed, frustrated, and angry because they can't do what they want. But what would the world be like if everyone's will were different and everyone could do it at their discretion? Things I can't choose, things I can't control, and sometimes I appreciate it. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
