I often think that the educational institutions meant for young children are far too small for them to branch out socially and individuate. I remember being stuck with the same people every day and it was quite a pain. I notice the condescending nature of the education system and although the specifics may be confined to where I live, it would seem as though the condescending attitude we have towards kids is a cross-cultural issue. For instance, at my elementary school, during school assemblies, children were expected to sit on the floor cross-legged while teachers got to sit on chairs. How is that fair? It almost insinuates that the children are not “worthy” like the teachers are. I know this is just my anecdote so it doesn’t weigh a whole lot but I’ve heard far worse things on r/raisedbynarcissists and r/cptsd. Children from homes with unhealthy family dynamics will tend to “act out”. Far too often, these kids are just seen as “problem children”, frequently belittled in front of the class or publicly singled out. I think that if the educational facilities for children were larger, there would be far more of these “bad apples” and this type of behaviour could finally be understood as a larger phenomena than something simply being “wrong” with a few individuals.
I really value the sentiment of institutions providing a sense of community. No matter the family dynamics a student may come from, they can still find a tribe beyond their bloodline through institutions. The larger the institutions, the more opportunities for such. That’s how I see it. Does anyone else have any thoughts on this?
