the point they're making is if you brought up a new generation from nursery and such itself with a new set of ideals and philosophies in education, children won't be as they are now as they grow up. though i do agree until a certain point, kids should certainly be guided and pushed (from the age of 7-16 or so especially) in the sense that they will be ABLE to learn independently as well as learning some key core curriculum such as the one nod suggested in his original post. from 16 onwards, a lot of other doors should obviously be opened but that's already detailed in my first post in this thread.
