If so, I don't really see how. Unless it results in something more serious than them getting a fright and losing some sleep. It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye. | ||

Yeah, if you break into their room to place them, they can have you arrested for that I guess. Otherwise they'd have to prove some kind of psychological or hearing damage or something I guess? | ||

Yes. It's called the Commission d'enrichissement de la langue française (no english wiki), working with the Académie française. They came up with words barely used (and vastly mocked) such as 'mot-dièse' for hashtag or 'fureteur' for lurker (of a forum or such), but also words used everyday such as 'liseuse' (e-book reader), or tablette. Also, looking into it, they just released a glossary for gaming words: https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/jo_pdf.do?id=JORFTEXT000034391219 Better late than never, but I doubt there is any chance most of those word will take over the English equivalents already omnipresent (such as MMORPG or FPS). | ||

But you can go with: J'ai fait du visionnage boulimique du trône de fer. (which is Game of Thrones) Sounds very weird (even had to ask for some help). | ||

Is there a developmental under-limit where stripping of innocence isn't even possible? Let's say we're talking about a run of the mill Western person. Boy or girl could have different implications, of course. | ||

Is there a developmental under-limit where stripping of innocence isn't even possible? Let's say we're talking about a run of the mill Western person. Boy or girl could have different implications, of course. First of all it's hard to define what exactly constitutes childlike innocence--some sort of simplicity/purity, ignorance of the world, combined with carefreeness and boundless imagination. It's a relatively modern concept which really took wing during the 19th century, and can be seen in one of its earliest form in Rousseau's Émile. Some people would argue that childhood innocence isn't really a thing, and is mostly something invented/romanticized to serve as political rhetoric. Eliminating it is difficult since it's so hard to define, but I'd imagine that depriving a child of food and human contact would hinder their development enough to prevent that "innocent" from appearing in any recognizable form. I don't think there's any advantage to doing that though. If you want to protect a child from dangers or con-artists or something else, you can probably ingrain that in a child without impacting their innocence whatever that may be. | ||

innocence is a human construct driven by <own>weakness and self pity then forcefully projected onto unsuspecting victims. it needs to die; it only creates complacent clones, drones and clueless whinos. Edit: the santa-claus part of the innocence doesn't matter because after you tell your kids about it, they'll make their own santas anyway, often better than your red, fat geezer. | ||

I might prefer it... come on dude, at least pretend to act tough so you could visualize contexts: would you want your kids to be raised by the state of Finland or by the Trump Organization?. just make them great again!. basically you didn't get it and talked out based on own fears. Edit: the busiest time in a humans life is when he's working or in the latest years of study, so things must be squeezed in before or after that period; after it, it's to late. | ||

Basically you put everyone to study for 3+ years, and have the children raised as they were in French noblesse. I wouldn't call this an utopia, as in it's radically different, new, optimal and quite unachievable, but more so a general upgrade (in your sense) of the society. | ||

In this case, I'd like Ulridge to give an (or a few) example of childhood innocence, and how it might be stripped, and we can then discuss pros and cons of that. Would maybe even (gasp!) have people talk about more or less the same thing. | ||
