Kids are dying of hunger and you’re worried about programming their little brains!!! Are you stoned???

Hate to say it, but that's why we homeschool & form our own learning circles and coops. Even in Montessori, we encountered teachers who couldn't wrap their minds around this concept.

If brain synapses expand does that mean pre and post-synaptic sites grow further apart, or the surfaces themselves increase in area? It seems like a monstrous energetic burden that doesn't buy much.

True stuff, this

there's no other way around this fact. we must drastically change the way we raise and treat our children. right now they are the ones who suffer (silently) the most as a consequence of our dog eat dog society. they have been abandoned as we fight "to make it"...

I respect what you said in the first sentence. It might be too late for that to produce mass tangible results. I'm not too sure about future generations existing or humanity. This pandemic is not relenting. Also existing only for survival is rather bleak.

Guys, read this tweet when you are high. It's amazing.

But instead people are raised to be indifferent to their government's decision to mercilessly bomb and pillage other countries. And so they learn to accept that in some way, developing a desire to simply not think about the subject instead of focusing on a fight for change.
