Judge for yourselves. I leave you with several of his thoughts from two interviews that I attached below:
“In order to change the world, you have to raise well from the cradle”
"The current family organization is the worst system for raising children. In cities, fathers and mothers make water between four walls "
"The helplessness of young children becomes socially visible, A few years later, in the age of adolescence. To raise a baby well without frustration, you have to understand deeply the dark aspects of motherhood, which are exactly the opposite of what magazines tell us"
"Leaving a baby crying all night equals his spiritual death. And then, how can we not go out violent? Few parents physically kill their children, but those who abandon them are the majority. "
