Tracks: Debate

At what age should children be transitioned from playing pretend to training for real-world skills? How do you know when a child should start learning to handle knives, guns, power-tools, machinery, paint, poisons, etc.? How do you know when you’re ready for that? Will your (grand)children be equipped to shoulder all adult responsibilities when they turn 18? How do you help make that happen? Debate Room is not a heated debate but a fast-paced, moderated discussion where everyone gets to be heard, and the most interesting speaker gets a prize!
