Oh yes, but reality is the opposite

Wir wollen Kinder erziehen,

die Pflanzen und Tiere benennen können,

nicht Berühmtheiten und Marken.

@greyan
So the kids who can name animals and plants but not celebrities and brands are not the crazy outsiders anymore?
Sounds like a great idea!

@greyan My Parents know better than me in naming plants and animals.

It's just that they don't care. For them it's just: Poison the weed...

@greyan well ... the most boring thing in primary school was, when we had to "learn" (memorize) the EMPTY names of birds and plants! (its useless data, 100% none-information, spam, didnt get stored in _my_ brain.) what would have been interesting instead would have been learning about some of the amazing stuff they do, how some of that stuff works...
@zitrone with pictures and videos 🧡
@greyan why not both? have some children be druids who can name the plants and animals, and then have others that are bards and can name all the bands and celebrities.
@greyan I hear you . Was raised knowing a lot of plants and herbal recipes. Moved countries (and language) and discovered most folks can't name more than a few flowers. Now I have a few horticulturists and landscape gardeners to help out. My kids learnt some, but not so interested.
