Thought provoking observation from Rick Rubin about the educational system and its consequences:

"As children, few of us are taught to understand and prioritize our feelings. For the most part, the educational system doesn't ask us to access our sensitivity, but to be obedient. To do what is expected. Our natural independent spirit is tamed. Free thought is constrained. There is a set of rules and expectations put upon us that is not about exploring who we are or what we're capable of. The system is not here for our benefit. It holds us back as individuals to support its own continued existence."

Can we break free from the damage that has been done or is it irreparable? Can we at least protect our children from it?

That's a tough question. The system has been set up that way for a long time and normal people can't afford to circumvent it, at least in certain countries.

Of course, there are alternatives like BTB island - a separate state or community. But it didn't just come about. It must have been someone who had a lot and took it the right way.

Who among you would not want a private island , for children to have private teachers that educate about BTC , nature , philanthropy , about protecting endangered species , organize tours for disabled children .

So as always “ don’t take me my word, everybody jas its own brain”😃

Interesting! It's true that sometimes there are no alternatives, especially if you don't have the means.

Is the BTB island you mention, the new network school from nostr:npub1xeejes6lu4scttcmzytq5wfad3e6rljpmhc3snqs89xz3jjavfasnuz3mx, which starts in a couple of days or another project?

So I I've seen something smaller community is in Costa Rica then there is some directly BTC island I think somewhere near Honduras which directly provides permanent residence and tax relief but we are talking about millionaires.

The community in Costa Rica also has some training on BTC for children, they pay BTC , grow their own crops etc..

I also read somewhere that a BTC school is about to open or is even open in Singapore with accommodation and other activities.

As they are good projects with a bright future.

And I'm sure there's more , I'm just writing about what I've read or seen myself.

Good stuff...thanks for the information. I'll do some more research on it. The Singapore project is probably the network school I mentioned earlier. I'm looking forward to see how this one will evolve.
