RE: Conform? Never! Stop Trying to Change Them
I draw a lot of sense from you post as you have made excellent points here. You sound like either a teacher of a mother of many kids coz you seen to know and understand children very well.
One aspect of our existence that has been very subjective is out educational system. The educational system tends to use one yardstick to judge everyone forgetting the that there is something like being unique. The educational system gathers the fish, snake, monkey , elephant , horse and so many animals and subject them all to climbing a tree...hows that gonna work?
Conformity is really bad and being subjected to confirm to a certaim way of life by others is even worse because you get to live a lie. You get to live an unsatisfied life.
Little Wonder some students quit school to pursue their passion . Little Wonder some students graduate , duno their certificates with their parents and run off to do that which their heart yearns for.
I teach a writing class for 4th graders, coach youth boxing, and am a mom of three boys :)
