The end of public educationVisualize a thriving society where children grow up happily with their families and friends, living their lives, doing what they love day in and day out - that it could be playing football outside with their friends, walking in the woods and beside streams, or perhaps surfing the internet to play, or even coming across music or a video showing the vastness of the universe on YouTube ! They are all encounters with the future, potential, hidden sparks that have the possibility of becoming a child's fascination. Playing football can lead to a hidden talent of fantastic speed. Walking in the woods and along streams can lead to an obsession with the little frog who jumps into the stream as a young boy passes, scaring him. Internet games can arouse curiosity about how they were created, how they work, how the page they are on works, how the Internet works! The immeasurable exposure to massive amounts of lifestyles, topics, and arts on YouTube is of incalculable value. Humans are curious creatures; always looking for information, absorbing it, analyzing it. When something sparks interest, it grows like wildfire! But when an authority takes over and demands are made, curiosity recedes and the fire is extinguished. Public education is that authority. It overwhelms entire lives until it becomes life, and a premature and erroneous idea of ​​the meaning of life is developed from involuntary, but nevertheless negligible, signals delivered by the system to the mass of students who will be the future. Signals that give rise to ideas such as “everyone is the same”, “knowledge is worth more than happiness”, “stress is a part of life”. These gestures are just an inconvenience of an otherwise well-built machine...... middle of paper......f that natural human curiosity that all are born with. Public education is simply useless. This is unfair, wrong and ineffective. This does not mean that knowledge and education are useless, as they are both extremely valuable, but they can both be acquired by living. Basic knowledge is still necessary, but it is something that is taught as the child's education progresses. A toddler's potty training goes hand in hand with learning simple math and reading skills - all of which is learned throughout childhood. There are also private establishments offering a competitive offer of “traditional” education, and home education accessible to those who prefer a more personalized course. Imagine a world where people don't need to be told what to learn. Curiosity and ambition lead to knowledge. Knowledge is an amenity to happiness, not the other way around.
