RE: Raising Leaders Instead of Rulers
I had the good fortune to homeschool my children, at least at the start. The staggering display of interest, aptitude, energy, and love of learning.
Now, 5 years after they were stuck in the government schools, they're just as jaded and resentful as everyone else. Almost like the system is designed to destroy happiness. (almost?)
The son of a friend went through the montessori system in his early years. Then they had to move him to the public system. I remember my friend mentioned that he noticed how the shine on his child's eyes started dimming through time. It was heartbreaking :/
Thanks for reading my story. Life is too short to be jaded and resentful. And yes the system was designed that way!
