If you're an adult you can learn it in a year or two, maybe. Not as a child.

We're lacking perspective here...remember, you've spent years learning this stuff. It's review for you at this point. You're not starting off fresh. Can you learn a new language quickly? That's what I thought.

My dad was a terrible math teacher though. There are a lot of concepts you could teach kids during the summer and whatnot to get them ahead. He just had me do addition and subtraction for years and that hurt me.

but what do you really remember from school? random history facts that half are made up? grammor? you can understand what i'm saying without some fancy proper grammer that someone made up and said is right....if you don't use the math algorythms and algebra ect then often you forget it and need to relearn it...I don't remember the spanish I "learned"... I gurantee so many people that passed math classes in high school couldn't do it again without studying...

I think school is good for interatcting with other people...but then you got freaking goverment agents in schools pretending to be kids and really fucking up peoples minds. https://www.nytimes.com/1985/05/25/nyregion/undercover-drug-agents-are-increasing-in-schools.html

this was in 1985... now there are more than just drug agents in schools...the nsa recruits kids when they are in highschool!

When does a child become an adult? There seems to be an increasing number of old children
