How are they lies? And please, no anecdotal citings from 15 years ago where some teacher said electrons are tied to the nucleus with string.
We teach them electrons move around the nucleus of the atom in nice neat little concentric circles. They don't, they have complex interweaving orbits, and in fact the nulceus of the atom isn't the static blob we teach high school kids but another set of complex intervweaving orbits occupied by protons and nuetrons, and in fact with all the orbit movement going on it's kind of silly to discuss a nucleus at all because there really isn't one. Basically everything we teach about the interworkings of an atom, except the parts, is a lie, we teach them atoms work kind of like cells and that's not true. Complete bunk that must be unlearned.
You jst reminded me of another one.
One of my sons came home from elementary school and asked his pregnant mother if the wires hurt at all.
What wires?
Well, maybe not eggzacly wire but what my teacher said there's something like wires holding the baby to Mommie's stomach.
No, I don't like sex education in the schools either.
