IMO kids in America have it soft. First off there's practically a "no-fail" policy in most schools nowadays. And you get 3 months off in the summer to backslide and forget. That is a throwback to old times when folks needed their kids help on farms and whatnot. It's a detriment in this day and age. Kids in Japan go to school year round, and they are much better off in the long run. With the fast pace and competitive nature of America today (especially Corporate America) kids need to go to school year round, no time off... Last edited by Big Mike; 08-07-2007 at 09:34 AM. | |

I can't do anything but laugh when I read this thread. I'm a journalist and while I never claim to be perfect (trust me, the paper I produce gets plenty of proof reads) but in this one thread I've seen the most bad grammer then I have seen in months of reading this forum. It's quite entertaining. :-) Keep up the good work. |

| hehe not really, just because they have longer hours doesn't mean they are learning more....all the same problems as in the U.S.(minus the guns) but add Japanese culture and you get some really messed up school systems.
