SUMMERHILL SCHOOL!!! ENGLAND!!!!
My teacher told me about this in high school. As humans we have a natural thirst for knowledge. While naturally kids did their own thing for the first few weeks they eventually started going to class. It teaches them to want to go to class. You’re not forced to learn and because of that you want to learn.
THAT’S BRILLIANT
It sounds stupid but it’s almost like reverse psychology. Kids hate people forcing them to go to school. But as soon as that is lifted, they suddenly want to. And it’s not surprising.
People like learning, people hate being forced to learn
My econ teacher always said “school should be more like a library. they should let the kid look for what they want to learn about and teach them based on that”

One free internet cookie if you know who this Kirby is.

how are these people not dead
Oh he can eat plastic bags and the other lady can eat drywall, but if I want to enjoy some fucking cookie dough I’ll get salmonella and die
You know, Pica is a very serious disorder that can cause serious harm. It may be easy to look at someone and just be like “I wouldn’t eat that, lol” but it’s actually a very serious thing and be treated as such.
