Gatto is saying that schooling is made for kids to adapt to; it has adaptive qualities, therefore there is a chance for everyone to succeed if they really want to, but it takes away from any individual thinking. Conforming is another evil of school because it makes us forced to learn things we really have no interest in and as Gatto states “its intention is to make children as alike as possible”(153). A lot of students use this excuse while they are in high school “when am I ever going to use this again in life” ill be honest I have said it before but I don't necessarily agree with these students because you need to build a base education before you figure out what you want your schooling to focus on. Kids change their minds everyday, I realized that I’m not quite sure I want to be an art major anymore, even being in the first couple of classes I knew it wasn’t for me
During this time, your children learn from several teachers with different views of how to educate. They will make friends, who have unique hobbies and personalities apart from their own. Your son(s) and daughter(s) ,will inevitably be no longer influenced by only what happens inside the house. Your kids are exposed to the environment in which they interact in, and its up to them whether that will mean a benefit for themselves or not. Pursuing this further is my second thought on why I say no.
And while I had my toys and my friends around I still had to be responsible about doing my homework and wake up every morning and wear my clothes to go to school. I learned to do everything by myself and. Finally after one year my dad decided that we can go to see my mom. At the first time, I did not feel anything when I saw her because I could not remember her as a mom. This really hurt me as
Nicole Williams, A student, “I had to take my daughter out of the center because my husband and I could not afford all three children”. As we have learned it is important for daycare to have cleanliness, activities, flexible hours, reasonable prices, and a convenient location. The quality of a daycare is important because parents are entrusting their children to the care of someone else. As children develop, they will need to learn how to entertain themselves and also how to interact with others in various settings and
It is the schools responsibility to be able to provide good enough teachers, who can prepare these students. In order to have a good education, there must be qualified teachers there to teach and prepare students effectively. Bauerlein questions schools curriculums and the way they are presenting “complex texts” (Bauerlein) to the students; “The more high school teachers place complex texts on the syllabus and concoct slow, deliberate reading exercises for students to complete, the more they will inculcate the habit” (Bauerlein). Students learn what their teachers tell them they have to learn, without knowing the effects the teachings will have on them whether good or bad. That is why schools providing qualified teachers are so important
He voices his opinion on how high school was, how high school is now, and how it could make or break your next four years from all the upsets, hardships and bullying. Fifty years ago, things were way different than how they are today. Kids had to go to school and were respectful to their peers or they would get in a huge amount of trouble, kids were expected to help their parents around the house or does some yard work outside. Nowadays kids do nothing and expect so much in return. If they do not get what they want when they want it, usually they will pitch a fit or they will not speak to their parents and the end result of that situation is the kid ends up getting it.
Brianna Stahl WR 121/400, Ms. Roush Unit 1: Dialoguing with Others about Ideas Monday, November 04, 2013 Who does not need education, apparently you? Do children really need an education and if they do are they in school too long? This question causes many different reactions from me because I see endless possibilities with schooling and without a financial barrier I would attend school for the rest of my life. As a working adult, who has little time, I often think that schooling goes on for too long. In his article “Against School: How Public Education Cripples Our Kids and why” John Taylor Gatto blames the education system for creating a cattle drive that sends people towards a specific labor goal.
Nowadays there is a considerable debate whether children should go to schools for education or can have home education instead. People are starting to consider thinking which way would be more suitable for their kids and for themselves as well. They are assessing the positives and negatives of each option and then choosing the one that is best fitting their needs and life style. Although that most of parents that started home education for their children have found out that it is not easy to transfer school facilities to home, but it has become a very accepted alternative way for going to schools . The number of children being educated at home is considerably increasing though there are no accurate prevalence estimates as mentioned by Petrie, Windrass & Thomas, 1999.
We all start out as children learning from out parents/guardians about the ways of life. A parent can affect their children in a positive or negative way depending on the parenting style used, environment they choose to raise their children in, and the other influences the child is allowed to be around to learn from. Although, some children no matter what types of a negative or positive learning environment they are in can do the totally opposite. For example a young child that grows up with an abusive parent, bad neighborhood, and negative group of friends can choose a totally different path for themselves and end up with a positive outcome in the end. The outcome of the child’s future can be positive or negative, depending on the individual’s choice to either use their childhood experiences as their path in life or to use these experiences as examples to learn from in their future.
