"[Beware paternalistic, interventionist, statist, social activists, politicians, and governments that want to politically empower themselves rather than educationally empower the individuals concerned with the necessary life-skills:-] The tragic truth is that the language of 'victimization' is the true victimizer - a great crippler of young minds and spirits. To teach young people ['learned helplessness' and lack of perceived personal locus of control -] that their lives are governed - not by their own actions, but by socioeconomic forces or government budgets or other mysterious and fiendish forces beyond their control - is to teach our children negativism, resignation, passivity, and despair.
