This video is a hard hitting truth about our education system and our society in terms of what we are doing to our children. Sir Ken Robinson made a excellent point in how we stigmatize our children as well as ourselves about being scared of being wrong in comparison to a young child with no boundaries of being afraid of being wrong.Second, that we do waste our creativity in order to conform to society and meet the needs of industrialization. This is very true because I always wanted to be a chocolatier and own a candy shop.
I think that the education system do need to emphasize the benefit of a child's natural creativity. You may have a child who is always getting into trouble but can write poems and can draw. Maybe as a teacher you can bridge that talent into helping that student grow.Finally, if we waste our creativity and go for the status quote in society are we really losing apart of ourselves that can say we had a childhood? In which some people take for granted.
