You can start when they're 2 or 3 years old. They're accustomed to throwing themselves on the ground at that age.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

I don’t know if there’s a heaven but I can tell you I’ve seen hell and it’s what lies beneath and within a child’s car seat.
