I remember getting to school for the 7:45 AM class as some of the worst times of my childhood. Imagine a deep Polish winter, it’s -15 Celsius, you get up at 6:30 in complete darkness, you walk to a bus station to get on an overcrowded bus where you can barely even stand as all the other kids are going too. then starting the day with an hour of math with a sociopathic, incompetent teacher… it took me years to appreciate school and learning again

I have some similar horrible experiences with school but hey, isn’t it like an authentic prep for the real world?

No. And if it were don't you think it would be better to teach the children how to improve the state of the world instead of perpetuating its evils?
