I’ve had to teach college freshman math that I learned in the 7th grade. Our education system is a complete failure. My pre-k daughter can already read, write, and do basic mathematics. My publicly educated 7 yo nephew, who is very intelligent, is on the same level. They teach to the lowest common denominator in public schools. Guess what that means when schools are located in areas where education is not valued and actually ridiculed since selling drugs, pimpin, and theft are seen as a legit means of providing for one’s self?
