Sir Ken Robinson: Do schools kill creativity?

“Nobody knows what God looks like.” “They will in a minute!”

I love it!! LOL
That was incredible and just what I needed to hear today. Thank you! I have a daughter majoring in Music and one who is at the Theatre 3-4 times a week studying acting, singing and dance. People look at me a little strange like how are your children going to make money. I just tell them everyone is having a hard time getting a job right now if they are going to struggle I want it to be doing something they enjoy but I really think their are so many ways to make a living doing what you love.
I do still put the “core” subjects first just like he is talking about and Art is always getting pushed out. If a kid can read and write they can learn to do just about anything so I saw why not foster their creativity and leave the rest up the Creator.
