Hey parents, you are the key to creating a world of Peace and Love.
Well, actually young clowns are the key, but as parents, you come in a close second.
This is because you have more influence over your young clowns than any other group, except for those social media clowns, of course.
You may be wondering what Micko means about the Flow of Love. For Micko, Love Flow happens every time a clown feels empathy for others, cares about others, feels positive connections with others or feels compassion for others and tries to help them.
You have the potential to help your young clowns understand and guide their Love Flow, which over many generations will create a world of Love and Peace.
How open-minded are you? Are you willing to open to the possibility that you could play an important role in this process?
Mentally check the right box:
[] No, I’d rather play games on my phone.[] Yes, tell me more about what I can do.
You may be doing things in your home that focus on the Flow of Love, or you may see examples of caring, empathy, being nice, making friends, or compassion and helping…please share it here so we can start a discussion!
More about the Flow of Love
In the section The Flow of Love Micko explains that Love flows like water in a garden hose—it can be prevented from flowing, it can flow a trickle, or it can flow full force,
And Micko also suggests there are three kinnds of Love: Self-Love, Other-Love, and World-Love.
Why are young clowns the key to World peace and Love?
As you already know, young clowns soak up information like sponges soak up liquids. Sponges don’t care what the liquid is, if it’s a liquid the sponge will soak it up.
Same thing with young clowns—their brains will soak up whatever information we present to them. Different languages, different customs, different world views, different beliefs about the correct way to put toilet paper in the holder—doesn’t matter, their young clown brains will soak up that information.
In fact, Micko believes that empowering our younger clowns to understand the flow of Love within themselves and between them and other clowns and the world is the most important thing parents, teachers, and the rest of us can do to create World Peace.
Micko says it’s so simple: All we have to do is help our younger clowns learn to spread their love.
Every interaction with another clown has is a chance to increase a young clown’s Love Flow, the Love Flow of others, and the Love Flow of the World. LoveBlossoms (Barbara Fredrickson) calls these moments “micro-moments of Love”, FlowingLove, (Daniel Siegel) says in everyday moments you can help your young clown’s brain grow towards integration, and Jane Goodall spoke often of the daily choices we can make to impact our world.
Micko believes that if we do this they will become more loving toward themselves and to others, and it will make them healthier and make the world more harmonious.
In the illustration below you see a young clown brain that HAS absorbed information about the Flow of LOve.
Micko knows that you are already doing many things to help your young clown grow up to be a happy, successful clown.
But Micko wants to present to you some information that FlowingLove has written in several books on parenting, focusing mostly on your young clown’s brain and how it grows over time. Much of the info below is from the book The whole-brain child but some is from the book Brainstorm, which is about the power of the teenage brain.
Micko also wants to share with you some of Micko’s ideas about helping young clowns understand and influence their Love Flow.
Micko believes we can create a World of Love over many generations, and that the most important thing in this process is how we help our young clowns understand and influence their Love Flow.
The table below presents this information, have fun!
Below is information from one of FlowingLove’s (Daniel Siegel) books on parenting and the brain – The Whole Brain Child.
This book is probably mostly oriented toward younger clowns, but would be relevant to teen clowns as well.
The first column is theory, the second column is strategies you parents can try, and the third column is Micko’s ideas about how this information fits with Micko’s ideas.

Below is information from a different book by FlowingLove (Daniel Siegel) that is oriented toward teen clowns and parents of teen clowns.
The first column is theory about teen clowns’ brains and hope for our future, the second column is Love Experiments that teen clowns can try, and the third column is how these ideas fit with Micko’s ideas.
There is a separate section on this site for Teen clowns, but this information is added here so you, as parents, can encourage your teens to consider this information.

Hey clowns, even if you are not a parent , teacher, or caregiver, how yoiu share your Love, or how you don’t share your Love, will affect other clowns…especially young clowns This is called role modeling.
It’s also related to quantum physics. Micko read something about the universe being a massive field of energy except when a clown observes something in the universe…then that ‘something’ appears in some form that we call reality.
So you can see how important it is that you are in touch with how you share your Love because when other clowns observe you, you will magically appear and become part of the other clowns’ universe!
So, to evaluate how well you role model mentally check the boxes that apply to you.
[] I smile to strangers. [] I look strangers in the eye when I smile at them.[] I say hi to strangers.
[] I start conversations with strangers.
[] I like to throw pies in strangers faces or squirt seltzer down their pants because I find it helps to break the ice so we can get to know each other.
[] I’m patient when waiting in line.
[] I’m tolerant of clowns who are different from me.
[] I help other clowns when I can.
[] I’m patient with telemarketers trying to sell me something I don’t want.
[] Or I just hang up on them.
[] I try not to fart in public.
