Control - the changing roles of students and teachers

Another thought was provoked by a Chinese official who remarks that people see children as kites and we want them to fly high, but we also want to retain control by holding on to the kite's string. I quite liked this as a metaphor for locus of control and it made me think about whether you need a string and, if so, how long it needs to be and who is holding it.
