Notes

Right, everyone has gone through it. Someone wanted to be an astronaut, some fruit to yogurt, president and someone could not decide. From any infantile dreams we had, elementary school woke us up. Formed us to tidily shaped box. Box, into which elementary school poured all – by the curriculum – we are supposed to know.

"Mrs Taylor. That Johnny. That is bad. He's having a real struggle with Maths lately." Mum of the son of course doesn't hesitate and finds a tutor for Johnny. Poor Johnny now spends even more time with a subject he is clearly not interested in and can't understand no matter what he does.

And why is no one looking at the fact he's not interested in Maths, yet loves literature and drawing and acing both classes. Kids are individualities and elementary school has one single task: To make everyone equal and average person. Everything, that's out of the curriculum is irrelevant. It only wants to take everything that makes the person different away and send forward in the system and this is how it goes further. At 15 he decides wrong again by which school he wants to study and new equations, dates, rules, homework and exercises are coming along the way. If Johnny doesn't still know what to do and hopelessly is looking for the purpose, he decides to go further and see if college or university will help him find that purpose and often and sadly, people have to pay tuition and still, with such high degree of education, there's a high chance of ending up in that bar, supermarket or on the assembly line.
