"When teachers are confused and uninspired — they will contribute to the general failure and complacency rate."
I wrote an article dedicated to Your Environment last month. The aim of this article was to emphasize that ‘education’ in a destructive, stagnant environment can easily turn to dust and a badge of shame.
Think about this, our parents, to make a living, have to choose a career, and usually the most readily available careers are government-run, such as nursing, security, and teaching. A parent is fundamentally a human who’s either consciously decided to get a child or unconsciously brought one into the world through lack of awareness. Therefore a parent is also a child with great responsibility to raise another child. A parent is a child because they are still learning about life, making mistakes, fighting their fears, filled with uncertainty, and more.
A person who is turned into teacher because they’ve met the system requirements but has no love or inclination for teaching is an exceedingly harmful person to the youth and to the glory of mankind. I shivered when this dawned into my mind — that, some of my school teachers were actually parents at home. Parents who were failing at parenting. Parents who are overweight because they are greedy around food, parents who are in debt because they are frivolous with money, parents who are mean and bitter because they’ve been hurt and betrayed by their romantic partners. In other words, parents who contribute, rather than reduce, to the confusion and the trauma transferred onto the youth.
I cannot help but strongly believe that had I been educated in a closed-environment by one or two dedicated mentors I would have thrived during my teenage years compared to this shuffling exposure to many uninspired teachers.
Children and teenagers are faced with a lot of challenges; poor parenting, destructive environments, peer pressure, self-doubt — but what’s frequently ignored is the added confusion and bitterness they get from teachers who are utter failures in their personal lives!
Home school your child, is my conclusion.
