could you give an example of a different mode of communication? i think force is a strong word, no one mentioned force. is the treatment i'm recieving here in the above postings what you would define as an open and safe enviroment?

On an internet forum modes of communication are limited, in real life one's manner one's attitude and response to different situations can communicate a lot, in my experience being with a teacher you pick up just as much from these things as what he says.

Yes force is a strong word, but if you apply principles of child raising and gardening for example trying to make things happen that aren't ready to happen meets resistance and could be damaging.

I trust my daughter learns just by being with daddy and playing with him, if I can't communicate Dhamma like that in a natural way I trust in the process that she'll learn what's important in life as she develops.
