When people can’t imagine kids learning without
When people can’t imagine kids learning without being told what to do, it says more about their own experience than it does about children.

If you’ve only ever known learning through pressure, comparison, and control, it’s hard to picture what freedom looks like.
But curiosity is natural. Motivation is innate. Learning is enjoyable when it isn't crushed by fear or judgment.

If you’ve never known a child untouched by school, you haven’t truly seen what learning can be.

"Collecting data on human learning based on children’s behavior in school is like collecting data on killer whales based on their behavior at Sea World." -Carol Black
