What I loved about this 13 year old’s video on education

As parents in the city go running around to get the best education for their kids here is a teenager who has actually made it so simple.

A 13 year old boy, Logan LaPlante who made a speech on TEDx about our education system raised a very important question on “What if we made education about how to be Healthy and Happy?”

I must confess that I agree with him that the current schools system is teaching us how to make a living, not a life! I absolutely love the part where he says that kids have more neurons and are therefore a lot smarter but adults still think they are smarter. True that! Another question raised is “Schools kill Creativity” and “Creativity is as important as Literacy”.  Do you agree?

According to  Logan the subjects that must be taught in school are

1. Exercise
2. Diet and Nutrition
3. Time in Nature
4. Contribution and Service
5. Relationships
6. Relaxation and Stress Management
7. Religious and Spiritual Involvement
