But what's the alternative? I see this sentiment repeated all the time and no one offers any workable alternatives.

- Eridrus 9y agoThe alternative should be to make more classes elective and provide less rigorous versions. There's really no point teaching most kids anything beyond the basics of most subjects. Spend more of our resources on motivating subjects & topics, rather than just telling kids to learn things. If the kids aren't interested in learning what you're teaching, it doesn't matter what you're teaching anyway, you're just creating stress on everyone for no reason. Maybe I'm extrapolating too much from my own experiences, but I lost nothing when I dropped physics because my teacher was an asshat, nor from sticking with chemistry because my teacher was a non-asshat.
