He misses the point about schools. True, hyper-stimulation makes school harder for the students, but it’s still a boring and frustrating experience by design.
School wastes an enormous amount of the child's life.
For example:
My husband is tutoring a 12 year old boy in arithmetic. He has asked the boy to spend one hour each day practicing math.
Last week he reviewed the boy's schedule for a typical school day. This one hour to practice math is 25% of the boy's free time. The rest of the day is entirely consumed with getting ready for school, traveling to school, getting home from school, and school assigned homework.
My homeschoolers rarely spent more than 2 hours a day in formal homeschooling. The rest of the day they **played**. It was an amazing phenomena to watch but very young child, if there is no TV or other electronics, can and **do** spend hours ( even days, weeks, and months) playing ( ie: “working”) on projects that interest them. Gradually, their play became their adult work and highly refined adult hobbies.
How can children learn to concentrate if they are never given the opportunity and their lives are constantly interrupted by bells, schedules, and appointments?
