What School Really Does to Children ποΈ
They call it education, but what it really teaches is obedience.
π Sit still.
π Donβt question.
π Memorize. Repeat. Forget.
π Be quiet unless spoken to.
π Get rewarded for compliance β punished for curiosity.
Children are born with wild minds, creative souls, and energy that could light up cities⦠and then we put them in buildings that grade their worth by how well they repeat information from a system designed decades ago.
π§ The truth?
School trains kids to function in a system β not to understand it.
Most never learn:
β’ How to process their emotions
β’ How to tune into their intuition
β’ How to think critically or create freely
β’ How to remember who they are
By the time they leave school, many children have forgotten how to dream.
And that was the point.
This is exactly why PARENTS are so important. PARENTS can teach their children the basics of reading, writing, math, vocabulary, etc. Also common sense, critical thinking, and how to navigate adulthood with things like budgets, how to fix things, clean things, cook, mend, first aid, manners, respect, patriotism, spiritual truths, etc, etc. Also teach the skills necessary to build on what interests them. Not all kids need or want a college education. Trade skills can be very valuable. Service jobs like firefighting, paramedics, police, military. Exploring these options are a great pathway to independence. π
