I'm not so sure they are... since I've entered the "real world", in none of my jobs have I encountered social situations that are anything like school. I don't work all day with 30 other people that are the exact same age as I am, I don't get up every hour and move to different office to perform a completely different task. And I don't have to raise my hand to ask to use the restroom, get a drink, sharpen my pencil, or just to speak.

A kindergartner would learn a second language would ease and would quickly become fluent. So why do most schools only start teaching kids a new language when they're teenagers? At that age, most struggle and never get very fluent at it.

marriage is a legal term and a spiritual step right? a vow/commitment made in front of a judge/clergy member/god/justice of the peace. it affords certain legal rights to the parties involved. some even just consider it a piece of paper.
most, i assume is a fair guess, are taught you grow up, get married, and then you start a family. why? why is it done that way?
what is so important about that step, that, that is the usual and accepted way of procreating?
what is it about marriage that makes that the way to be?
does being married make you a better parent? does making a legal and spiritual commitment somehow make you more ready for children?

interesting tidbit - quick google search to a site called nationmaster.com using 19 countries - avg age of marriage = 28.1 and avg age of first child = 26.9

bw - just a discussion question. a thought in my head i thought id share and get opinions

should they have as much priority as your biological children?

it is important for children to attend school so that they can get an education, and be able to ask a question that makes sense so that someone can give a relevant answer...

there is no reason for children to phone school, unless perhaps they are going to be out of school for a while, and want to advise the teachers, so that they do not miss too much work..

there is no reason for children to bring phones to school, because they are there for an education, and having any devices to distract them will only get in the way of getting an education, as well as the potential for phones to be used as a way to cheat on tests (texting answers, looking up answers on the internet)

Kindergarten through high school, what is the most important thing to learn in your opinion?

Check back in a few days for my answer to this, and see what you think of it.

How to think for yourself.
How to pay attention to what's going on around you - on a daily basis and in the world at large.
Common sense.
