J Cole Quotes

“I would say it’s more effective to treat people like children

Understandin’ the time and love and patience that’s needed to grow

This change is inevitable but ain’t none of us seen this before

Therefore we just gotta learn everything as we go”

J. Cole, Snow On Tha Bluff

Beyond the Quote (186/365)

There’s no disrespect in treating people “like children” in this way. It’s actually a brilliant way to look at uniquely challenging situations. For, what’s the difference between adults and children anyway? Development and experience? Adults are obviously developmentally more mature physically, mentally, and emotionally. And beyond that, the only other real difference is experience. Adults have undergone more experiences in their lives which have had more direct effects on how they think, feel, and act. And the reason most adults make better decisions is because their “better” judgement comes from their “bad” judgement remembered. Most children are still in the “bad” judgement phase.
