- give kids access to software designed to constantly undermine their attention through manipulative design. Don’t blame Google OK?
- keep them at home or doing some adult supervised activity 24/7. Unsupervised play among their peers is dangerous, they could be kidnapped!
- school is just a giant prep course for a series of standardized tests. If your kid sees no point in that, though luck!
- kid can’t focus/sleep/is acting out? Give them drugs!
- what do you mean this is not how humans have developed for most of their existence?
- Oh, so you want out? OK, how much cash do you have??? :porky-happy:
keep in mind I’m a dipshit who has never had to raise a kid, but things look bleak indeed.

I’m not defending teaching to maximize standardized test scores but kids don’t see the point in a lot of things that are objectively good for them and they should be made to do.
When I was a kid I didn’t see the point in eating vegetables, and in retrospect I’m glad that my parents sat me down at the table and made me eat my greens.
