About the part where this man talks about the programs in the schools. It does not amaze me how these people who talk about public school programs are so out of touch with the reality of kids and teacher world. They talk about programs where children are fed, but perhaps they have never eaten food from a school cafeteria for a single week, or have analyzed the content of sugars, refined flours and additives in the meals of the public schools, they have also not seen what children do with the healthy foods that they put in the food bars (the fruit goes in the trash).<br>Nor have they interacted for a year with a full and diverse group of students in a classroom, or worked trying to teach students with learning difficulties.<br>I reminds one of my students who, according to the tests, had a low cognitive level, she certainly struggled with the academic content but her ability to function, adapt, make good decisions, work on projects, and fit in with other classmates, was really good. Many of my students who classified as low IQ students, including a few "intellectually disabled", showed strength and wisdom to face problems in daily personal and school life.<br>That is why it is sad to hear these experts talk about programs that they do not know in reality.<br>I love when Lex says: "how about those programs suck.",(reply>), People who want to learn, will, whether at home or school. So the ones who do poorly are probably either lazy or lower IQs. Nature isn't very forgiving.
