How the school destroy the children's talents and make them failures

in #education7 years ago

It is painful to witness how modern education destroys the talents of children and cripples their souls. 90% of today's students will become infected. Our community is under the pressure of the matrix and can't understand the obvious truths. The education system is hopelessly obsolete. 90% unhappy people are too many. If a mineral water plant dropped 9 out of 10 bottles of dirty water, it would have been in prison for a long time. Thousands of schools each year "produce" people who will not be realized, will live poorly and will be lonely. Why is this happening? The causes of today's evil are in the past. Modern school was created 200 years ago. This institution has met certain needs of the industrial age when production is developing in England and new factories and banks are emerging. Serving them needed millions of dumb and obedient performers. Then, the system, contrary to the common sense, the nature of the child, evolution, was created.

We all know that kids love to play. In this way, learning becomes tens of times easier than behind a desk. Children have a lot of energy. They love laughing, running, jumping. The school penalizes the child for every manifestation of emotion, cheerfulness and curiosity. No development of the person, both at the physical and the intellectual level, can be said. Pedagogy is designed to destroy individuality, personality, to deprive the child of his personal opinion.

Here are the specific reasons why school is harmful.

  • Modern science has already proven that the child learns effectively when it is wrong. The school does everything to create a fear of mistakes in children. For wrong answers punish - they make a poor assessment. In the future, these unhappy people will be afraid to experiment and make mistakes.

  • There are only two answers in the tests - correct and wrong. Thus children see the world flat. Many tasks, in fact, can be solved in thousands of correct ways.

  • Children don't have time to think. The modern learning process is designed so that the child is constantly engaged in meaningless work. Earlier, in the prime of philosophy, the teacher gave a job on the river bank and gave time for thinking. Students could argue for several days and ponder. Only by contemplating silence can one develop his mind.

  • Today's school kills one of our innate instincts - our quest for knowledge. Leonardo da Vinci has not studied at school. Only thanks to this he could develop and preserve his thirst for knowledge. Throughout his life he has made genius discoveries, remaining a student. His inventions surpassed his time by 500 years. Most students cease to study once they receive their diplomas. They hate the process and remain spiritual disabled.

  • All knowledge given in school with violence against personality and humiliation can be placed on a five dollar stick. The world is growing fast, the information ages quickly and becomes useless. It's only worthwhile learning to learn, which they do not teach at school.

The modern school lacks flexibility, adaptability and logic. In such a trap, even the best and most dedicated teachers feel helpless. Is there hope and will anything to change? The people against the matrix, the consciousness against the soullessness, the mind against the gear wheels of a rotten mechanism. When talking about the future of our children, everything is worth the effort. But let not just the written, but the done.Therefore, dear parents, if you have the opportunity to move your child into home learning - give him this happy opportunity without thinking. Criticizing school education, in no case are people condemned - exceptions, soul pedagogues. Even in this school hell they show courage and love to the children, giving them knowledge and inspiring them for future deeds. But, unfortunately, these are exceptions.

Yeah, childhood is playhood- one of my favorite slogans. However how can I get my kids out of school if I have to make a living not at home and no family around?

Yes, sometimes life just doesn't allow it, but it's good to know the negative side of something and to be able to correct it and to make your children grow up with self-esteem and passable to reflect the world :)

Only 10 years ago teaching at school was diffrent. Also students changed a lot of their way of thinking. But how to get out if you life in this capitalism system where you have always to pay?

A very complex question :)

So true! all these human skills waisted cause of a fucked up education system.
People come out of school and NEVER read a book in their lives because they are so disgusted by the way school made them read.
This is just 1 of the many negative consequences of our education system

That was my case. I began to read and love books after school. When I was a student, I only earned low ratings of literature, and now it's my favorite thing in my life, and I love writing and thinking on books I read.

I agree that schools are a product of industrial era thinking. However I think there’s a lot of good innovative work being done by some schools (at least here in Melbourne, Australia) that is different.

But also family culture and social culture also play a role in this – it’s not always only the school system that lets kids down.

You are right. I live in East Europe and here the education system is so wrong :D And yes maybe family have more guilt but they are also a product of this educational system.

The education system is really stagnant and slow to change. It's the negative consequence of democracy. I'm betting a meritocracy such as China will be faster to adapt their educational system to meet the challenges of the new world than the western culture would.

Yes, it is regrettable. But, parents have a duty to protect our children's childhood and enjoy it fully. And although sometimes life does not want to allow it, you must do what is humanly possible to take them with all the positive possible, especially that they can grow with a lot of self-esteem and an adequate attitude of faith in front of life.

This post has no waste.
You are right. The traditional schools with their pedagogical practices based on behaviorism, are contrary to the natural way of learning in children. How many geniuses have we lost in the last two centuries?

Very good article! Unfortunately, today we have to go beyond school as a necessary evil.
