    As I child I longed to sit quietly in a room with no windows and do mindless repetitive work during the nicest days of the year. Because that is normal for a child.

      Sounds like you’re not too enthusiastic. You must be physically abused to correct this deviation.

      Why won’t my kids visit me?

      Schools are great on paper, but holy shit is the US educational system due for an overhaul.

      The way they're designed has to be subtly to make children grow up:

      1. Hating learning
      2. Used to spending their days on pointless busywork

      Even if it was a middle-of-the-road succdem country, the US would kick so much ass if it was willing to invest in anything besides military or subsidizing porky.

        Would be nice not to have ADHD but fantasize alot about about growing up in a communist world where:

        1. My attention span isn't being preyed upon and there are no commodities to fetishisize.
        2. Once I learn to read and with some guidence, I am left to work through text books at my own pace. I discover the joy of actually learning through patiently scanning the same paragraph three times some thirty years earlier.
