We see some spark in this current generation of kids. We certainly do and we see some creative geniuses in the group and lots of brilliance too. Many programs in school such as NASA, Legos and Robotic Contests are getting those little minds thinking away. What else can we do to keep them thinking and foster this curiosity and creative spark?
If we are going to “teach kids to think†so they can help the next generation work towards a better future in every regard then we ought to do so. If we use the TV and proper moral social conditioning; and plan to accomplish this then aren’t you in fact going to have these kids sit in front of a TV learning? And we know that too much TV makes people fat and keeps them from exercising.
If we use the TV as our only tool to teach kids to think then all we will really be doing is changing their programming, so the little humans will be better citizens and move to make the Utopia that our generation miserably failed to do. So where as this is a decent concept; aren’t we passing the buck a little? After all even now we are trying to accomplish this with little regard to hard work ethic, commitment and generally piss poor performance? So basically if we teach kids to think about and eventually create a better society via better TV programming in a way we are “telling†the next generation what to do rather then showing them thru example. Thus using TV social programming to brainwash them. If we are going to use such a method to secure a moral next generation to lead the human race forward then shouldn’t we be leading by example in the present period too? You see even Rhodes had led by example. Anyway the TV is a good powerful visualization tool for teaching, but we need to get it right this time. Think on this in 2006.
