So let's move forward to the premise that college is bad, because it encourages a culture of excess. Either you meet and fuck a shitton of people, or you drink too much, or drop too much acid, or just overdose on drama. And if you ain't doing any of that, you're probably working way too fucking hard on classes. There are very few careers where you have to pull all-nighters, ever.

But then again, it probably goes back to high school. The reason people explode in college is because their whole life up to that point, they've had to fucking ask permission to go to the fucking bathroom. Freedom is fun! and scary.

Something needs to be done. But not for me, I'm over it, I work for a living.

This is so, so sad. I wish there were more solutions, besides individual parents making the decision to home-school. We need systemic change, and we need it NOW.

My inclination is to encourage people who don't have the resources to home-school, not to breed. But of course, those are the very ones who ARE breeding. Thus, more thrown-away 6 tear-olds.
