"Educar a una persona en la mente pero no en la moral es educar una amenaza para la sociedad."

Theodore Roosevelt

Simplified Meaning:

If you teach someone a lot of information and skills but don't also teach them what's right and wrong, they might use their knowledge to hurt others or make bad choices. For example, imagine someone who is very smart and knows all about computers. If they haven’t learned to be honest and kind, they might use their computer skills to hack into other people's accounts, steal money, or spread harmful information. Just being smart isn’t enough. They also need to have good values and a sense of responsibility. So, it’s important to teach both knowledge and good behavior to create people who help society, not harm it. Parents and teachers can apply this by making sure that children learn not just facts, but also the importance of honesty, kindness, and responsibility.
