    None of us is a universal polymath, a specialist in twenty different sciences. And no one earns his living by working in twenty laboratories engaged in different sciences. And no one makes discoveries in twenty different sciences. And what’s more – no one has even feeble interests for twenty different sciences. In the best case – if our interest in learning has not been entirely quelled, we might specialize in a single field of study being interested in one science. It happens that the number of the sciences is two, or even three, but not because we were forced to, but because the interests would naturally grow and expand.

    Everyone can now conduct a simple experiment. Take twenty books on different sciences, and begin to study them according to schedule, spending six, eight hours a day. Do it on your holidays when the weather is great outside and you are eager to do something pleasant – take a walk, play football, do some cross-stitching. Do it and see – how long it will take before you feel strong aversion to science. One day? Two? So why do you think that children would react differently to such brutal forcing, given that they have to study per such schedules not for ten hours, but ten years!! One must be quite an idiot to think that such schooling would make children love science and leave at least something in their heads. And this catastrophic idiocy is elevated to the status of a law, so parents who do not want to destroy their child in such sadistic way are declared criminals. It’s a real disaster of modern civilized society due to the authorities being occupied by people who have nothing to do with science or to basic common sense.

    Under no circumstances you could force a child to study. It can only kill their interest in knowledge killing concurrently their very psychic life.

    Yes, it is quite obvious that our society gives well-educated people much better chance to get a good job and to settle well in society in comparison to illiterate ones. But we need to understand once and for all that any forcing cannot bring up well-educated people, but only the dead ones or half-dead, at best. We have to realise that education is a fruit that grows on a tree of lively interest and willingness.

    The only legal mode to educate children must be to render them assistance by showing an example, providing opportunities, creating an atmosphere (!) encouraging for their interests.

    Interests tend to wake up more quickly and naturally when someone is among the people interested in something, so if you want your child to display interests, put him or her in the company of interested people, into some creative team where people are studying something, creating something – into some kind of a functioning laboratory. To find such a company, of course, is a matter of great difficulty, so it is highly desirable that the state take an active part in promotion and development of many hundred thousand “clubs” – not in so crummy form as they were in the Soviet Union, but the ones rather similar to Silicon Valley in the US.

    And when such an interest appears, a child will learn and understand more in a month than it would be in a few years of cramming, and his interests will grow in depth and breadth, because that is a natural property of human psyche. In addition, this child would not be an oppressed and mentally crushed person, quite the contrary. Moreover, he will have much less motivation for manifestation of anger, violence, destructive desires – because that also is characteristic to the mind of a living being – to become violent and evil when being continuously coerced and hypnotized that he is a very bad person if not obeys submissively.

    What to do with the people, who have not shown any desire for knowledge despite the absence of forced education? Nothing. Leave them alone. Give them the opportunity to acquire skills, be it plumbing skills or DJ or artist or gardener or aquarist or nurse. There are hundreds, thousands of jobs that are in high demand in society and pretty well paid at that. Give them the opportunity to obtain skills for doing business on their own or with others, and you would get entrepreneurs satisfied with their lives. Instead of sitting for decade on their asses storing up hatred for themselves and the outside world, they will spend the decade trying to build their business projects and raise money.
