RE: The Education System – Professional Emotional Intelligence Destroyer

in #life5 years ago

Well that's the way it is...

Not that the teachers necessarily understand how to interact with people and handle their emotions either.

We absolutely should cover things like this in school. I've posted about it myself. No one these days knows how to talk to each other or handle their emotions. We don't teach kids how to actually live.

Hell, we don't even teach them how to balance their check book or do their taxes.

We should teach these things. We should have people kids can talk to, more than just a counselor they need a pass to see. We need to make it normal to talk to people about our emotions and concerns. We need to teach people how to really connect and handle their emotions. I think a major problem with these shootings is because of people that aren't necessarily insane...but they are broken. We need to make emotional and mental health something normal that is dealt with in schools and society.

And not just have it where therapy is just something that rich people do. We need to come up with ways to heal society, because we let this get so bad. If we had dealt with teaching kids how to live and interact in society, it might be easier to deal with. But, now we have to figure out how to patch society in addition to fixing schools.
