Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark · America’s Kids Are Falling Behind: A Way Out For Teachers & Parents | Dr. Hutz Hertzberg · 24 May 2026 podcast

And second of all, it's my responsibility to do this.

The thinking was, well, I'm just going to offload my kid to the school.

Now, they wouldn't say it offload, but that's just what you did.

She just went to the government schools thinking that you're going to get a great education.

And in most cases, parents didn't know who their teachers really are.

They didn't know what the curriculum was.

They just trusted that this is good education.

So I think it's really a combination of both.

I think it's because we have tried to put boys in seats for eight hours a day or six hours a day, seven hours a day, and just tell them, be quiet, listen.

And that's not the way that boys learn.

Boys wanna be active.

They wanna be out doing stuff and really exploring the nature or learning and being active and not just sitting behind a desk all day.

And again, as a proponent of classical education, there's more of that dimension, the joyful learning, to really teach kids to be joyful learners and take nature walks and to go out and learn and to draw landscapes and things outside.

But I think an answer to your question is because we've tried to teach boys like girls, and girls are more apt, although they're, you know, it's not like they love to be lectured to for an hour and a half, but they're more geared to be able to learn that way.

Boys are not wired that way.

Well, do you think that's just limited to high achieving students?

Yeah, I think by and large, that's generally a true statement.

You know, the students that we're working with down in our prep year program, we find that there's some that are not

emotionally as fragile as the general student.

But we've heard the terms, of course, and you know them, snowflake kids of helicopter parents that try to protect their children from everything.
