Education for technology is for a limited range of IQ and is very demoralizing to those who do not excell in this limited IQ range. Your dislike of this, is intelligent.
Aww, shucks. I'm blushing. But really I've had a passionate dislike for the education system for years. It isn't just because I don't like homework, though I don't, but because I've seen extraordinarily intelligent kids get lower grades because they hate their classes. These kids also seem to be the exact same ones that are picked on by the other students. My most recent reason is because a learning specialist at my school has been fired, because they are shutting down the learning center at our school. The last place where kids could be taught both one on one and where they got strategies to set the system to work for them. The one-size-fits-all school policy gets stronger.
It's not the teachers, who should be paid six figure salaries, that are evil, nor is it the administration or parents. It's just the system in place.


Don't forget this is all in good fun!
