As taught in a formal "philosophy" class, I don't think children in high school and middle have the life-experience, or maturity to benefit from such subjects.




Personally I would have loved a philosophy class in high school, and my grades started dropping when I started to become more interested in trying to figure out myself and the world around me rather than the monotonous regurgitating of information, set aside to be learned.

Life experience and maturity: ok i was probably one of few who was forced to grow up early. but if someone stealing your favourite toy, causes you to cry and carries the same emotional attachment that a more mature person would have with a person who had just died, both children can learn the same lessons from it. Children just have to learn to apply things into their lives.

Critical thinking should be promoted alot more than it is at the moment as well. You'd think you'd learn it in maths, but very often when i was in class i was given a simple "you just do" Ever since maths was taught to me in the "just do" attitude my grades dropped.

As for the more friendly approach to small kids and stuff and alot of the recommendations: is there no such thing as motessori(sp?) schools in America? These generally are only available for small children and i only know of one that is at high school level. The reasoning in a book i read about that school (summerset school or somethng i believe it was called)
