Being Like the Creator
The rule: “Teach a child according to the child’s way” means that we must maintain the child’s qualities and merely offer a method that will help children put their uniqueness to good use.
From a state of exploitation of the entire world, a child must come to a state of “self-exploitation” to be similar to the Creator—loving and giving to others—while retaining his or her uniqueness.
By doing so, we bring up children to be like the Creator, but in their own ways. We provide them with the tools, and they do the rest themselves.
Nothing was created evil; it is all a question of how we approach it.
