Manage episode 389619023 series 3534158
Education is critical to the success and flourishingn of young people in our society. In this engaging discussion, we delve into the realities of the education system in today's society. From homeschooling and public schooling to societal expectations, we share a range of perspectives and experiences that highlight the challenges and strengths of the current educational landscape. The conversation also extends to the lack of practical skill development in schools and colleges, the teaching of values, the impacts of technology, and the importance of involvement in local school boards. We stress the importance of being proactive in providing children a supportive and realistic educational environment, rather than passively adhering to societal norms or expectations.
