I’ve heard that from several doctors. You can teach iterations to first graders and there is no reason that math education need take as long as schools make it. I think medicine, along with much of what is taught in colleges can be handled and completed by HS.
It is part of the nanny state vicious circle that children remain children for so long. Kids are desperate to move into the adult world and sadly their only opportunities to be “adult” are through sex and alcohol/drugs.
We need to take the child away from the bureaucrats and return them to their parents - who are best placed to decide when they should work, drive or be educated and how.
Was the early 20th century such a bad place for children? Are they better off as dumbed down, ghetto talking, sex maniacs who are materialistic and dangerous to their fellow citizens?
Government fails at the margins and the marginal suffer the worst.

Why subject our best and brightest to the same old "bagObeans" teaching curriculum, techniques, and instructors that fail to teach even the brightest....year in and year out. I said YEARS!!!!
Accelerate the specialties....now.....should the student have a desire to pursue a particular career.
