How are we gonna compete against China without rote memorization and rigorous testing? I say we teach the kids that want to learn and focus on quality, not quantity in education. More kids who drop out of regular school could go to trade schools, and who knows, maybe we'll even start manufacturing shit again. College isn't for everybody, and we shouldn't try to make it that way.

Gosh, I'm so angry, but my comment wont do anything.

@isaacBrockofthe41 I have ADD and my meds don't work at all and i just tell my mom it works because if i don't then she's on my ass. then, she tells the doctor, who either ups the dose, or gives me another medication. I agree, we ARE screwed.

@StirItUP1973 Attention Deficit Disorder is a real thing in fact I was diagnosed with it when I was 15, I cant focus without meds. Boredom is what normal people get, crazy is what I get.

It's not just the American school system (which is truly awful) it THE school system throughout the world. The system every school follows was created in the 17th century, when the idea of teaching common folk was outrageous. This system was created to educate manual labourers in a factory-like environment, focusing on the in the box mistakes of one student. We need to redesign the WHOLE system in order for students to be able to thrive with their refined skills
