But we're still teaching knowledge education.
And I feel badly about it with my kids.
And what I've tried to do with my older kids is...
Teach them to have critical thinking more than, and I say, I don't care if you go to college, which is a little hard for them because they're kind of achievers.
And like, I don't care if you go to college.
What I care about is that you develop knowledge.
critical thinking and you find a way to be useful to people in the world.
And my one daughter, Carmen, she's also neurodivergent.
She has ADHD and dyslexia and she created a brand of sweatshirts
called Comfy Fancy.
And she also has created a gathering, a grouping, a group for neurodivergent middle school kids called NeuroSparkly.
And it's taking this thing which should be a problem and a deficit and it's making it a way that she can connect and help a lot of other kids.
So I'm proud to see that.

What's their agenda?
What's their lived experience and how has that impacted it?
