Making our own choices

(Based more on an Indian context)

During childhood:
  • Recite tables until 20 without having a clue to what they mean anyway
  • Be compared with the neighbourhood kids and 'why you are useless' anyway. Do not find what you are good at - but work based on 'What you suck at' anyway
  • Work hard at school, in ALL subjects with no clue what you prefer or why anyway
  • Be convinced that the subjects you love are the subjects that you get good marks in. Then get thrashed
