Ken Robinson on TED, Talking about Education & Children

Firstly, I send my apologies to all you regular readers who have noticed and commented on how I have not been writing. I've been spending more and more time blogging on my wellness blog (Boomers Wellness). 
No excuses though! I do have a goal to keep this blog up-to-date because I really feel that I've made a connection with some of you and I'd like to keep writing and connecting with you!

I watched this TED Talk last night, by Ken Robinson, and I laughed out loud a couple of times. Straight to the point though- it's pretty obvious, even without this talk, that education isn't built for the future (or the present moment). I often wonder "why is it again that I'm sending my child to public school?" I've pretty well decided that it's for the social development.
