Mostly agreeing with you:
What is this fantasy that abolishing school will do for these kids? They won’t magically discover themselves, as we are all beholden to the normal distribution. At some point or another, your ass is going to have to wake up at 8am every day and get to a desk and sit for 8 hours (yes, even at your dream job at Google) with people you may or may not like, just so you can have a small afternoon on a Sunday walking the dog or watching a movie. That’s reality.
Childhood is already a massive fantasy. Half the reason why many adults are maladjusted is because they can’t get out of the fantasy of childhood. No, your parents won’t pay your bills. Yeah, you will have a boss. Mmmhmm, it’s going to suck and you are going to have to find a way to get along. Oh, and that competition and bullying you were worried about, multiply that by 100 at any well paying office job. Hi, welcome to the world, hope you have some experience dealing with people because shit just got real.
Learn that at the youngest age(s) possible, because the harsh reality is no one later in life is going to wait around for you to ‘figure it out’. The whole world will pass you by and no one will bat an eye.
