I know this is typical for the US so this is more for US people to respond to. I wouldn’t say that it is the best system for work, just wondering about the disconnect.

    Yeah, it’s not like they are part of an institution designed to ensure a baseline level of education within society. Oh, wait.

      That’s right, to educate you, not to raise you.

      A basic level of education to function at work. That’s literally why modern schooling was created during the industrial revolution.

      What the fuck do you think parents are supposed to do? Just pop you out of a vagina, feed you, and leave everything else to other people?

      I’m sorry your parents were so shit, anon.

        How to deal with emotions, personal finance, How to deal with police, mindfulness, critical thinking…nothing.

        All of that seems fairly important for continued success at work.

        Unfortunately, much to my dismay, being a parent has no requirements or standards. As such, in order to ensure a baseline, that should be available in school. In addition, how are those parents supposed to learn how to parent… if that isn’t taught in school?

        Fuck orphans?

            Ah yes, I can’t believe I didn’t look at it that way. What wonderous intelligence you have been blessed with.

              It means that you’re being deliberately obtuse in order to pretend that you don’t understand that you’re wrong. If you don’t understand how to admit that, it’s nobody else’s problem.
