Kids are intellectually curious
The more years I work, the more curious students have become.
Kids are helpless
The more years I work, the less students seem to even want to poke the box.
Kids are smarter
The more years I work, the more intelligent students seem to be getting.
Kids are dumber
The more years I work, the more dumb stuff students seems to be doing.
Kids are more resourceful
The more years I work, the more industrious and entrepreneurial students seem to be getting.
Kids are less resourceful
The more years I work, the lazier and more helpless students seem to be getting.
Kids are nicer
The more years I work, the more kindness I see in students.
Kids are meaner
The more years I work, the more I see that students’ de facto attitude is being mean to others.
The long and short of it?
I predict a continued widening between the “classes.” As long as the educati think they can solve every problem for every student, the more likely that these students we will become dependent on the state. Let’s not allow our safety nets to become hammocks.
Good students will always flourish. It’s in their DNA.
Bad students will continue to deteriorate. It’s in their schooling.
So wealth disparity will grow. And we haven’t even considered the impact of the markets, Fed policy, and China.
