The claim was that "virtually all young kids love to explore and learn things", not that "virtually all young kids love to explore and learn multiplication tables".
- anon-3988 5mo agoI can easily claim that most kids are not interested in anything economically valuable. Probably most adults as well.
- thunderfork 5mo agoWell, there's your problem. You've gone from "teach kids" to "economic value". Keep your eye on the ball, not on the stands.
- bigstrat2003 5mo agoSure. But the fact of the matter is that we must teach kids many diverse things, and most of them are going to be things that some (or even most) of the kids have no interest in learning. So one has to grapple with the question of how to teach kids who don't actually care about learning what you're teaching.
