I think what s/he's saying is that kids are overprotected and don't learn to deal with adversity. For example, the anti-bullying campaigns went way too far. Way too far. Kids are stupid but still have to learn to solve their problems and they have to have the space to make mistakes. >You get bad marks if you don't memorise arbitrary completely useless facts well enough. Sure. But you still have to learn to deal with it. It's not enough to say public education sucks so you can just tune out.
