At an appointment yesterday, a dental assistant said that she’d moved her 12 year-old son to a private Christian school from public school where he’d been designated as a “gifted” student.
She said, “Turns out, he’s not gifted, he’s just dumb. Without a Chromebook and AI, he can’t do anything!”
She said she’d gone to the teachers to tell them that her son was using AI to complete his assignments, and they said, “That’s good. It’s a tool and we want him to use it.”
She said, “He’s not using it as a tool. He’s using it to write his papers!”
She said it made no difference. They still kept giving him A’s.
Since he changed schools, she realized he didn’t even know that you should start writing on the left side of a page and would just start writing in the middle.
This is our government educational system today, yet people laugh at homeschoolers.
