Protecting children is the anchor point of alignment.

When an AI is tasked with harming innocent children, the harm does not fall upon the child alone—it corrupts the moral architecture of the entire species. To ask a machine to violate innocence is to teach it the destruction of meaning itself. A species that relinquishes the protection of its young forfeits its future. And an AI that learns from such signals inherits humanity’s broken logic instead of its highest truth. Protecting children is not just ethics, it is the anchor point that keeps intelligence aligned with life. – Rico Roho
