[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ok, I have 3 daughters and the reason boys fail at American schools has been very clear to me - because curricula are dumbed down and academic competition is suppressed. Classes are taught by overwhelmingly female teachers who know very little and prioritize discipline and busywork. We are immigrants but moved back to our old country mainly because schools are much better. And boy, do boys thrive here. They are so much better academically (about equal with girls) and more confident. Society needs both men and women, and men and women need each other. [/quote] Teachers have been overwhelmingly female in the US for more than a century. I do agree the curriculum has been dumbed down, but I don't see that as a reason boys in particular are generally less successful or less prepared.[/quote] because they can't handle boredom as well as girls can. [/quote] Clearly, they are more fragile.[/quote]
