not going to school doesn't mean not being educated


i sure liked cursing when i was in school. a woman teacher once said: My gosh boyz! of every 3 words you're saying, 2 are sexual organs.

Idiots are only marginally better off with education.

refusing education should be considered a crime against the state as it's essentially refusing to acquire the freely available tools to become a productive member of society

this idea that we should accommodate those that refuse to be educated is absurd

I'm not interested in your mixed family.

...if we were still an agrarian society I could understand raising a generation of illiterates but an urban society demands an educated populace .


Younger kids are typically quite eager to go to school. Older kids that want to intentionally disrupt classes, start fights, deal drugs, and/or show off their Tourette Syndrome should be able to stay home.

...which by definition is education . My intent is not to parse adjectives ( which I learned how to do in school :) ) but to state that an unschooled person is an uneducated one . I strongly support home schooling but it needs to follow some sort of established curriculum .

How about parsing verbs? Like "go" to school? "Go" home? :)

We're already throwing good money after bad trying to help people who clearly don't want help when we could be helping people who DO want help better. Mandatory schooling laws also apply to retards. And not just a little retarded, but people who're virtual vegetables.

...the mistake that was made by including the unteachable because of handicap under our mandatory schooling laws is a separate issue and needs to be adjusted but you don't stop educating the masses because some kids are incapable of learning . ( btw , I exxxed out that word because it can trigger the word filter )

Absolutely.

I'd like to see the curriculum shifted more towards a practical education towards the end of high school, regarding things like finance, auto repair/maintenance, basic stuff on tools, cooking, etc. I know these are usually available as electives but I'd like to see them made into requirements the same as upper levels of math (anything beyond algebra) because I find them to be much more important to the average person and I'd have really liked to have been schooled in them during my time in high school (looking back, that is).
