Children who know a lot about their family history—where their grandmother went to school, where their great-uncle grew up, how and when their parents met, and so on—are found to be more confident and resilient in general than those who who is unfamiliar with such things. Researchers suggest that helping children develop a powerful “intergenerational self” reminds them that they belong to something larger than themselves. They are not the main characters in the family story, but part of a chapter that is still being written. This is the opposite of the concept of “everyone is around me” and in this sense has a valuable decentering effect.

According to the results of one study, children who read independently understand the text of a paper book better than an electronic one. Apparently, the e-book offers too many different actions and this distracts the child’s attention. If an e-book looks more like a toy or game, the main purpose of reading a story is lost. So it is better to choose e-books that do not have excessive animation effects, music or other distracting elements.

- If he loves his country, he will make it better! Let him work, fight, let him finally suffer, but don’t run! Saltykov-Shchedrin, naturally, without analogies, he hated the tsarist order so much and this is what he wrote: “I was in well-disposed foreign places and I don’t remember a moment in which my heart did not rush to Russia. It's good there. But here, let’s say, it’s not so good. But just imagine, it still turns out that we are better. It’s better because it’s more painful.” This is a very special logic, but it is the logic of love.
