    Came in to say something similar.

    Another issue is that people don’t remember anything from school because they have no reason to. Stuff isn’t taught, it’s trained for the next test and then promptly discarded as useless. The purpose of school is to train factory line workers to be able to do one repetitive task over and over again. It’s how the public school system was originally designed.

    School almost made me hate learning, and I love learning new things and skills. I literally never learned how to actually learn and be afraid to make mistakes until after I dropped out of college. I still struggle with it in my 30s.

      I don’t know. I read pretty often, and I learned how to do that at school.
