This is such an important message. I just saw a tweet or a fb post the other day that was commenting on how schools focus on our weaknesses instead of our strengths, and it really struck me as so true, and how it messes us up. If you grow up focusing on what you're bad at (for me in school, that was always math), you feel incompetent, like a failure. Instead of being able to focus on things you are good at, and gaining confidence. It can shape how you feel about yourself really profoundly!

So sad about the fact many teachers just see the weakness of the students :(
We really need teachers or parents who see children as free people about choosing their way :)
Yes, I agree! Build children up, not put them down.
