- blumkvist 11y agoIt matters because if people are not motivated to do something, they will not do it, or best case scenario - slack. This is especially true for kids. The purpose of schools is for kids to learn, not for teachers to teach. Perhaps we can put more effort into explaining to kids why they need to learn those things.
