Ken's book "Out of Our Minds" changed my perspective of the world and changed my life. He is truly an inspiration, and I can't get enough of his work.

what he saw, most parents/teachers did not. that might be reason why some of us walk trough life like they are in someone else's skin and afraid to be what they always wanted

I've always hated the education system, thinking about how it only produces robotic beings.... Now after hearing this man's righteous words, i completely have a new sense of realization. I'll keep at it in earning my degrees and such, But i'll have this speech in my mind so as not to lose my mind really.

That was Art.

[ibelamp]

it should be a requirement of being a human being to watch this. we would grow so much as a people ... or you can "jersey shore" your brain away...

@favoritefoods you don't have to pass an intelligence test to be in the Congress.

This man is a genius. He said just about everything I needed to hear. See, my mother is very adamant about me expressing myself, and trying to make use of my passions and hobbies as a career because she believes that it'll be hard for me to survive on my own doing what I do (art, by the way). I really wish to get into graphics design or making comic strips/books like Stan Lee and Aaron McGruder did, because I have all these stories and characters I can't lose. Thanks for uploading this, Robert.

Home educators understand this very well... children need freedom to find out who they are, and what they are meant to be. Forcing notions about what they should be doing upon them is counter-productive.
