  1. Starting Late? on Improving Education? · · Score: 1

    Why don't we wait one year on when children start school? Let people graduate at age 19 instead of 18. Kids will be generally more mature by that age. Yes, I know there's a precious window of when the child can learn the most and their brain is like a sponge. But if we put them in a daycare/education type of environment such as a preschool setting for an extra year I feel it would do a lot of good. The only thing that would be wrong with this in today's culture is that parenting a child while still in school will become a bigger issue. . . but it already is in my opinion. Also with this, go with the rankings instead of grades as many of you have suggested. Promote people, but don't let them graduate until a certain age. I am currently in college and I hate seeing a very young kid in my classes... such as fourteen (in my engineering chemesty class none the less). I am not jelious of him at all. I feel bad for him because he's missing out on a childhood. Those are just my suggestions.. o, besides up teacher pay so that there could be a market for schools to select from, but ranking a teacher is a whole different subject.

  2. Same people? on Sunscreen Not So Good for You? · · Score: 1

    I bet this is by the same people who were telling girls that it's a good idea to practice fellatio... Clearly they are trying to turn all the girls of the world into something more enjoyable by morphing the things that guys have liked for ages into something healthy. I, for one, can't wait to see what "study" they come out with next.

  3. Which is worse... on Wisconsin Corpse Plant To Bloom Again · · Score: 1

    Me watching a live feed of it on a Friday night, or people actually going there to see it..
