The thing that separates humans from animals is that we come together with our pockets of knowledge to work towards a collective good. One generation uses the previous generations knowledge as a platform rather than reinventing the wheel everytime. A mother teaches her child not to touch fire, a father attempts to make his sons childhood easier than his, an elder sibling guides the younger one in major decisions lest his mistakes are repeated by the younger one, a good boss tries to be that mentor he never had to his employees. The minute mankind starts hoarding knowledge or experience our downfall begins as a group and we take steps backward in evolution.
