Summary/Abstract: History apoints that the Age of Enlightenment was a milestone in child raising concept. All concepts following this one through next centuries kept its focus on child happiness and directed the education science to the issue of child essence, child needs, child safe growth. However, the last two decades of 20th century ribbed off picture of an adult care-giver as indisputable child protector pointed out that the picture had become belief without argument. The main task of an adult caregiver therefore should have been to free themselves of all-mighty parent or teacher myth what means hard work on slef-change. What is adult caregiver efficacy if it is difficult to leave comfort-zone in spite of knowledge offerd by education science, what is a direction of school habbit to give promisses that cannot be fullfilled and what is a consequence of belief that we can control other human being – a child – just because the child is less powerful in economic, social, physical and menthal sence? Intention of this paper is to bring back thesis that education must go forward inspite of impossibility to prevent life tragedies while educator must step out of pedagogical treatment of care-giving entering the space of andragogical self-care. Therefore – is it possible to provide eduaction for risk culture in life of uncertainity if educator or caregiver himself/herself is not educated in andragogical manner for risk culture promotion?
