Childhood in antiquity: how did ancient cultures think about children?

Myth-busting: Mesopotamia

I keep seeing the same misconceptions repeated here, so let me address them:

  1. Myth: You need expensive equipment → Reality: Start with what you have
  2. Myth: It takes years to get good → Reality: Focused practice beats time
  3. Myth: There's one right way → Reality: Many valid approaches exist

Stop gatekeeping and start encouraging newcomers.
