This is a beautiful stage of life. I remember how much fun my daughter had in preschool. Art, games, recreational activities, among other great things. All of that died when she moved on to elementary school. Elementary school is the death of creativity and fun for children. No matter what continent you live on, elementary school only does one thing for our children: prepare them to be employees, not prepare them for life itself. I still remember her face on the first day of elementary school. She was sad to see that her classroom was no longer decorated with drawings or crafts made by the students. In her own words, "The classroom is monochromatic, there are no drawings or colors, it looks boring." That caused me great sadness, seeing her disappointment at leaving behind a fun time and starting a new stage where only 25% of what she's taught will actually be useful for developing her skills and her life.

This hits hard because I am an elementary school teacher haha. Oh the pressure to prepare kids for a high-stakes exam.

I guess it’s up to us to preserve the fun for our kiddos

Is Bitcoin the remaining 75%?

I'm sorry, it was never my intention to offend you. I understand that there are still people with a genuine vocation to teach and train new generations capable of rising up, and obviously most just teach the classes that the education system tells them to and stick to their schedule to get their salary.

I'm not sure if Bitcoin is 75% of what children should learn, but what I am sure of is that Bitcoin is a priority and that the education system neglects many things that are important for children. Because the education system is not designed to train free-thinking people who follow their dreams and ideals. The education system is a “sausage factory” that is designed with specific molds according to its interests. And the system doesn't want you awake, it wants you asleep 💤

No offence taken!

This hits hard…

I meant to say that you delivered a potent blow because what you say is the truth. But nay, I remain detached. After all, I need to do something to pay the bills xP
