And they send their children to schools where they learn 10-page poems and learn every musical instrument under the sun because they know that's going to be the future gold of human imagination and mind.
I want educators to know that parents aren't buying this anymore.
They're not okay with it.
Hugh and I are fighting the British education system at the moment, which wants to put all national exams online, which would have a disastrous trickle-back effect of meaning that children are on screens for their entire school day, because the parents wouldn't have to provide books.
They'd say, sorry, the exams are online, so let's get the kids super savvy about what they're going to be doing.
So we're fighting that.
I want to give parents a voice to say, sorry, how is this better than reading a book and handwriting a response?
None of the schools can ever answer that.
They give all sorts of sort of slogany responses saying it's the future.
No, it isn't the future.
Children who can't think properly and deeply, that's not the kind of future I want to be a part of.
The biggest concern for me with them is that they don't get books anymore.
They don't read novels for English.
They don't have textbooks for any of their subjects.
They come home and everything is online, whether it's bite-sized videos or online PowerPoints.
It's all very agitating, shallow, flimsy, and maddening.
I can see they're not learning.
I can see their physical health is suffering.
They're getting very stressed out by this way of education, and I want
parents to take to the streets and start revolting.
