This was my biggest beef with my education major in college -- we have
these "Doctors of Education" thumping big fat books that egomaniac
educators wrote in which they expound their "findings" about the minds
of children. And I have to not only LEARN their garbage, but APPLY it
in a USEFUL MANNER.
Like PIAGET for example. He did his studies on his own fscking
children!
