I like this and agree. It seems like the machinery of our school system kept us so busy with homework and extracurricular activities we scarcely did anything else, let alone pause for reflection. When they removed Drivers Ed from the schools and replaced it with many AP classes and Honors classes, they pushed the limits of our best and brightest.
Then they hobbled their independence, no American Graffiti cruising etc. lol. Lofty Ideas of working from home isolated and ultimately only part-time work for highly educated young people. Only very disciplined (literally some whipped) taking on certain better jobs. Demoralized young people and their parents not knowing how to fight their demoral programming.
We are here now for those of us who survived, not the phentinal ones sadly. There is much work to be done to overcome their "lost" years and the way forward now is not so clear. I will keep trying of course.
I joined Truth Social hoping to get this very message out. To not forget our bright, now, 20 somethings. Hoping and seeking solutions, ideas for overcoming the damage. That was 2 yrs ago. I already knew that time was ticking away and 2 years of stuff going into their brains that I could not stop. Even to the point now my GATE daughter will no longer talk to me.
There is only so much armor a mom can put on so I've been waiting. I'm glad I found the Badlands guys to help me get through. Thank you too Eric. Blessings.
