[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem with education in the US is the problem with many things in the US versus other countries. We don’t value cooperation, community, and family. Sure politicians say they value this, but the greatest amount of money and time is not actually spent to protect, support, or advance this. It’s why is 2023 paid sick leave is not covered for everyone. It why there is still debate about maternity and paternity leave. It’s why mothers receive little support after the birth of a child. It’s why community development initiatives rarely spend time in community engagement and include people from the actual type of community but instead people who THINK they know what’s best. It why we can’t accept a national curriculum and then add on specific regional/local things. It why we say we value data but then don’t actively use if it doesn’t meet indivdual opinion. [/quote] +1 This obsession with rugged individualism will be the collective death for all of us.[/quote]
