AI-Generated Ideal Day for Child Development

probably a huge

mistake and i will probably delete this video i trained an ai to be a phd

level developmental psychologist and then i just set it loose no

boundaries no cultural rules give me the

ideal day for a child to develop into a healthy adult i told that if you want them

to be in school for 12 hours a day or not at all that's fine you want them to stare

at a blank white wall all day go ahead and this

is what it came up with which to be honest is not surprising

at all to me a person getting their phd in developmental psychology who researches

parenting for a living first hour of the day no

alarms just morning slow mornings regulation

connection low dopamine then they go to school right john no

unstructured outdoor free play for two

to four hours next up you have an hour to two hours of what

they call social play and conflict so this is like play at the park where they're

with a kid or like in any environment where they're having to

navigate peer relationships again no adult intervention just the kids working it

out next up focused skill building which is like school right

so it's learning how to read or piano or maths or whatever and it's 30 to 90 minutes

total not six hours 30 to 90 minutes

of focused education and skill building and that includes things again that are like

fine arts not just education but like all

forms That's it That's all they're gonna get for the rest of the day Okay then we

have meaningful contribution which is like chores right So this is like housework

Anything that makes them feel like

they're a contributing member of the family Wait for this next one boredom

Just boredom two hours Scattered around just boredom

is important I'm bored I don't know come up with something Then we

return to physical play and movement which is very similar to outdoor unstructured

free play notice how this is like Capstoning the day like they're

like six hours is what you're getting there And that doesn't even count like the

two hours here or one to two hours here with friends Like this is just Guaranteed

necessary then again evening

connection and story This is like with you especially the story piece telling

the story of the day Revisiting the day like thinking about their memories like all

that's really important This is also

where you could do like reading to your kids and then sleep for 10 to 12 hours

Now compare this to

the average day which you can pause

to read this

You notice the

difference something that was supposed to get 60 to 90 minutes is getting 7 plus

2 like 7 to 9 hours something that got like 9 hours

gets 30 to 60 minutes but John how are they gonna ever learn how to read if

they only have 30 to 90 minutes

Research actually shows us that that's enough Like that's all you need going back

to this average day The craziest part of

this to me is that parents who send their kids to school are actually doing as

much homeschool as homeschoolers You're just doing that on top of the seven hours

that they already did Anyway like I said I'm probably gonna delete this so take a
