Raising Mars

Who Is Pony Ma?

Just a parent obsessed with the future of education.

Hey, I'm Pony.

I'm a father, a builder, and an explorer of what education could become. When my son Mars was born, I started asking myself a question that wouldn't go away: How do you raise a child for a world that's changing faster than any generation before?

I believe curiosity beats curriculum, AI is a tool not a threat, and the mindset you build at home matters more than any school. Every post here is a real lesson from my journey.

This site is available in multiple languages because these questions don't belong to any one culture — they belong to all of us.

What I Believe

  • 01 Curiosity over curriculum. A child who loves to learn will always outpace one who's forced to.
  • 02 AI is a tool, not a threat. The question isn't whether AI will change education — it's whether we'll shape that change intentionally.
  • 03 Parents are the first teachers. School matters, but the mindset you build at home matters more.
  • 04 Think globally, act personally. Education reform starts with one child, one conversation, one intentional choice.
