Certainly not an option for lazy students or parents.
No it isn’t. It’s good for people, like myself who doesn’t learn well with the industrial method of educating outlr students, where we essentially put facts into their heads and keep moving on.
If I had been able to keep studying material, until I knew it deeply, before moving forward, I would have been considerably more educated than I am.
I disagree. One aspect of the John Dewey Marxist Prussian public school system that was put in place in 1930, was to destroy the “love of knowledge” which is natural in all healthy children. Children aren’t taught knowledge in schools....they are taught “cognitive dissonance” and can’t make sense of it and get frustrated or think they are dumb. (They are usually the brightest).
Children are the most curious and love to learn-—unless they are ridiculed and humiliated by a bunch of peers who are made to laugh at them when they don’t conform to the “proper” Marxist way of thinking—which avoids truth and real knowledge.
The other thing children HATE to do is waste their time. Public school is a big waste of time because it is geared for collective learning and not the individual-—like what Lincoln had...... Public school teaches dependence on the State-—the opposite of a Ben Franklin/Abe Lincoln education. They teach children to be servile, and dependent on a teacher, having to get permission to go to the bathroom. No Mark Twain or Lincoln would have resulted from such a repressive, slavish condition. Children used to be independent in early childhood, do all sorts of chores which contributed to the family unit and establish true learning and true self-esteem and knowledge.
It is indoctrination and total dependency which destroys that search for the Truth which is natural in all emotionally healthy children.
It is right after age 7 when we see this drop (and hate) of school. Very curious when parents and children used to yearn and save and work for education.
Nothing free is ever valued by most people.
