[Episode 12] The Cost of the K-12 Schooling System
Manage episode 375506518 series 3463327
How did our schooling affect us in adulthood?
In this episode, I breakdown my own experience of the ways in which my K-12 schooling had negative consequences for me when I got to my 20s and 30s. I speak to the battle against perfectionism, needing validation from others, and constantly striving to achieve. I ask every parent a key question: If we keep going the same way, what will be the cost for all kids in the future?
In this episode, I cover:
1) My own battle with perfectionism
2) The four ways in which schools deny kids internal validation
3) The "why" behind going against the grain of achievement as a parent
