Why I Don’t Let My Students Play the Victim

33 min17 september 2026

Om avsnittet

Victimhood is not virtue. Modern culture has taught children and adults alike that suffering confers merit, and now claiming victim status is a faster route to power than actually overcoming hardship. This logic plays out everywhere from courtrooms to classrooms. The people we should be raising up are not the ones who claim the most suffering, but the ones who refused to let suffering define them. Tell children the world is against them, and they will believe you. Tell them they are capable, and they might actually become so.
