Why dont young Kids learn???

Well, I think that you can understand what i am trying to say from the picture here, but i feel that i need to express my views to make you understand even more so here goes..

why dont young kids at the age of 3 or 4 dont really learn??? there are quite a lot of theories, but what i wish to say, is something really interesting i feel. First things first, in India, parents and their parents (i meant grandparents) of these kids, feel annoyed when they see any kid, they say we are old and we cannot run behind the kid to wherever he goes, thats one point, and if he tries to do anything, they dont appreciate it.

Check out for instance, when a young kid picks a bottle of paint and uses his hand and starts to paint ( dont consider the case if he to taste it) on the wall, we as elders what we do?? simple drag that paint from him and give him a spat or go on a rampage on this poor young fellow. Instead you can identify his talent by giving him a board of cardboard or a piece of paper and ask him/her to draw on it. Wouldnt that be nice, if he ever has some in born talent which we fail to identify and do as in the picture, then he would be gutted.

After that we would be groping to find a talent in him/her and we forcefully ask them to take up some classes which we liked to learn but couldnt so we make them learn it forcefully in most cases!! thats what hampers his growth, "THINK" young kids develop knowledge from things they see around.

You can consider yourself any kind of incident and if you "THINK" you can find a suitable solution as i had given in an example. Remember the quote of Mahatma Gandhi "The True Purpose of Education is to train the Mind to Think" and only if you are educated you can study this, and if you are educated you are supposed to think!!!

THINK AGAIN

If you can do it, then your kid or anyother kid will be superstar in his/her own field in reality.
