The kids will mess it up no matter how you try to run a school (maybe not your kids)

Adults mess it up, not kids.
I thought so at one age but then I tried a lot of different schools
The last school I went to as a kid was of the "Sudbury" model where there's no schedule, kids organize their own classes and stuff
I was still ostracized and abused for being too smart and telling the truth too much
Teachers should have handled things more fairly but that was in the teenage years, at some point the kids are responsible for how we treat each other ourselves
If corruption starts in childhood from within the children, and good people are outnumbered by corrupt people pumping out more babies, what can a teacher or their chosen system do?
Again, I assume your kids aren't part of the problem, that's not sarcasm
I'm 28 now, the "we ourselves" wording was weird, I was thinking of my generation while typing that
My kids blow my mind with how amazing they are. They don't act like typical teenagers. I feel very lucky. I credit myself, their mother, and their school. I am blessed.
The "good" kids still weren't good to me and their parents wouldn't have known since they weren't my parents
I only think you're right about your kids because you've put effort into building a life better than society offers, and I grew up in a place for people who just want "the best of society" whatever that means - probably no families like yours in my home area
I am very blessed. All we can do is our best with what we have.
