Unpacking your Child's Potential

Unpacking your Child's Potential

With the birth of a child, you are given an assignment:

To help and guide that child to be all they can be.

With the birth of a child you are given an assignment:

To help and guide that child to be all they can be.

It is an assignment unlike any other.

The endless demands on your time, energy, wallet and ingenuity.
It is multi-faceted with each facet unfolding on its own time.
The Assignment cascades from one generation to the next,
each generation begins anew.

Fulfilling the Assignment.

If you can say to yourself,
"I am doing the best I can with the resources I have at hand."
This is all anyone can ask of you.

Ever.

Like a muscle group, you use them or lose them.

When I became a dad, I was overjoyed, puzzled, lazy, a bit of a rebel. I looked for a better way.

Today I am the father of three adult sons, a recovering engineer - I develop stuff.
From a very early age I have been curious about how things come to be - in nature, in our constructed world and in your mind and mine. This curiosity morphed into a deep fascination in process and outcome and the subtle dance between them.
I have developed the Acorn Assignment to provide a fresh, simple and timeless perspective on being a parent in the 2020's and beyond.

My name is Keith Marble.

The future belongs to the curious,
