Children naturally form stronger bonds with the carers and their Haemmachuo siblings than with their parents and blood siblings. At 10 a child is still young and will, over time, develop a bond of some sort with their biological family but they wouldn’t be as close as family groups of other species. A child is raised to show the appropriate level of respect towards their family and to maintain a civilized level of contact with blood family as they continue their education. | Children naturally form stronger bonds with the carers and their Haemmachuo siblings than with their parents and blood siblings.

The point of having this method of education is to allow every child the same opportunities to flourish and to mould the children into what they consider model citizens. Every child is raised the same way and they all subscribe to the same ideals, it’s a very controlled environment. They all have the same philosophical and cultural beliefs, they all adhere to the same behavioral codes. To some outsiders it may even be seen as conditioning. | The point of having this method of education is to allow every child the same opportunities to flourish and to mould the children into what they consider model citizens.

However the upbringing is in many ways highly tailored to the individual because at every stage they make great efforts to identify each child’s strengths, weaknesses and talents. To this end they would keep detailed information about each child and use it to determine which branch each child goes into. The thinking behind this that it benefits society to bring out the best in every child. People feel good when they are successful, which is what happens when you do something you’re good at. So by digging into each person’s personality and putting them where they will shine the most they will have a happy and productive workforce. | However the upbringing is in many ways highly tailored to the individual because at every stage they make great efforts to identify each child’s strengths, weaknesses and talents.

After they finish high-school level education they typically take a fall year. They can move straight onto a career or further education if they choose but most take the fall year. It is a time where they take a break from studying, grow in self-sufficiency and decide where in their branch they wish to go. Many will take on a job to gain some work experience and it is a time to settle into the real world. Their options are limited in many ways but they do have enough autonomy and choice to live happy lives. It’s one of the things that allows this way of living and being to work for them.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-avandar/UbLr8w-CQjw/_50CYQaD-VQJ “Finding Solid Ground”], Ensign Rune Jolara & Dr. Talya Robbins, {{USS|Avandar}}, SD 238910.30</ref> | After they finish high-school level education they typically take a fall year.

===Branches=== | |||
====The Great Tree of Life==== | |||
All branches are connected to the tree (of life) which is basically the core of their culture and society and is represented by The Fallen Branch. | |||
The thick branches of the tree are the main disciplines, like science, engineering, political, arts etc. An Al-Leyan who belongs to the science branch can choose to pursue any career that belongs to that branch e.g. Zoologist, Botanist, Chemist etc. Someone in the medical branch could be a nurse, or a doctor, or a surgeon... | |||
* Prote main branch, main discipline e.g science/medical | |||
** Prote-se Secondary/sub branch, main discipline within that. E.g Biology/Physics/Chemistry | |||
*** Prote- sede Branch under that Ie Botany/Zoology/cell biology. Trouble is some disciplines overlap. Genetics can be part chemistry and part biology. Not sure how to cover this but given it’s all under science not sure it matter. | |||
**** Prote-sedeli Branch under that again. Eg tree specialist. | |||
'''Example Branch:''' | |||
*Prote - Science | |||
**Prote-Se - Biology | |||
***Prote-Sede - Botany | |||
****Prote-Sedeli - Tree Specialist. | |||
