[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So now you want teachers to have even less education. Get an AA degree like the other trades?  :shock: [/quote]

I don’t think that’s a bad idea, at least for the younger ages.   Were you being sarcastic?[/quote]

You mean like when they learn to read? Develop math and reasoning skills? When some of the first signs of learning disabilities and processing disorders are apparent?

We invest so little in the first 5 to 10 years of a kid's life as a country that it's despicable. [/quote]

In those other countries that DCUM aspire to be like with well paid and educated teachers and kids starting formal school at 7 (like Finland for example), the kids all start school being fluent readers. Their parents teach them at home in the early years. And parents could have even less than AA degrees. They care about their kids though and make sure to teach them to read and whatever else is expected before school starts.

The despicable thing in the US is how bad the parenting is and how little people care about their own kids.[/quote]
