Comment on Schools Are Imploding by Marshal Jacobson

This is pretty strong stuff. You don’t hold back on your opinions do you? I can’t agree with everything but for the most part I agree with you approach to preparing kids for the highly competitive world they will face, and I don’t think schools are agile enough to make the changes that the kids need to be prepared.

We need more people like you coming up with ideas and not just complaining.

Comment on The Myth of Self-Esteem – Seven Dangerous Parenting Myths by JD Nichol

The late 60s and 70s were the start of the self-esteem movement and the Electric Company was our electric nanny telling us we were great no matter what. Sound like a good thing to tell kids; possibly, but not realistic, and certainly more harmful than telling them they needed to apply themselves and help others.

Thanks for the comment Eddie.

You know, it’s funny. I was thinking of a song that used to play on either Sesame Street or Electric Company when I was a kid. It just kind of popped into my head while at work.

The lyrics?

“The most important person in the whole wide world is you, and you hardly even know you. The most important person in the whole wide world is you, come on, let’s show you. Think a bit about it when you’re sad and blue ’cause you’re the most important person in the world to you.”

Now beyond the fact that four decades later I remember those lyrics… It hit me: What a completely awful song to sing to kids! No wonder my generation turned into the a bunch of egomaniacal, selfish, navel-gazers. This was the generation that turned into the bankers and lawyers who raided corporations, fired workers, and got rich on the blood and sweat of others. What the kids’ shows of the past THOUGHT they were teaching was unconditional self-esteem. What they WERE teaching was sociopathic.

Good article.
