Ethos & What We Do Not Do
I do not welcome individuals who behave inappropriately, bully, harass, stalk, falsely accuse, threaten, abuse, create fake evidence or cut words out of context and twist their meanings. Racial and ideological discrimination also have no place here. Furthermore, I very strongly disapprove of instilling this kind of "norms" in children's upbringing. My approach to education is rooted in the idea that this kind of methodologies, as advantageous as they may be for some people, do not replace hard work, good quality or humaneness and are totally unacceptable.
📖 "Let me give you a definition of ethics: It is good to maintain and further life, it is bad to damage and destroy life."
Albert Schweitzer
📖 “The thinking (person) must oppose all cruel customs, no matter how deeply rooted in tradition and surrounded by a halo. When we have a choice, we must avoid bringing torment and injury into the life of another.”
Albert Schweitzer
