I went to religious school. Graduated thirty four years ago. That list would be mighty long.

The list: Everything we taught you.

Pretty much

Funny thing, I think back to how batshit that education was, and I'd say it was way more moderate bordering on sensible compared to the horseshit they teach today.

It's getting worse, not better.

I help my kids with their schoolwork. It's pretty reasonable, and also offers plenty of opportunities for me to talk with them about deeper issues that schools don't have time or expertise in teaching. However even the basics they offer are okay, without any parental kibitzing.

Full disclosure: I live in Holland.

Good schooling in Europe? Big shocker 😅

Well, it's not Finland, but I guess is good enough. And teachers probably have better work enviroment and pay than in Russia.

Fun fact: we do have bad schooling and overloaded teachers in here... Not to mention the bullying problem that even the ex-president was worried about. The quality is dropping because +300 students are being crammed under the same roof. And the politicians are only making it worse by not letting the teachers do their job and are cutting costs. (Constantly shifting how to do their job) This will not go down well for any students that have even minor difficulties in learning...

Hey! Horseshit isn't as bad as what they teach today!

In the beginning...

But at least you only have to identify everything once and every other student for the last 30 years can help you remember...
