Students with suspense

I've always suspected that all school rules dictated by social frustration and retaliation, people who are absolutely illiterate. Only then is it that every law on the matter is worse than the last. The penultimate: that of students with three or four unfinished course only those disciplines next year and spend the rest of the day touching noses. Is precisely what is needed by school problems and educational failure, engage in relaxation rather than the effort. I know, that this application, the character, will and discipline are nothing more than to fascists and reactionary attitudes and that cool, so cool, what progress ... are pleasure and softness, the only true virtue democratic.

With them, however, two generations we have been expressed more and worse, probably in several languages, including indigenous languages, but still less communication skills than before, that they can use with ease the computer but are incapable of simple mental arithmetic skills and have often colorful themes while ignoring the history and geography. So when I hear the insistent blunder that young people are the best educated generation in our history, remember the forgotten what he said Ortega y Gasset on many diplomats: "Beings illiterate, but properly handled fish blades at a luncheon ?. Having said that, I agree with the Junta de Castilla y León and Valencia in which the suspended students can repeat the entire course with the idea, if not improving knowledge, at least not lose it during the following academic year. The trouble is that our legislators believe that learning is a punishment, rather than a source of pleasure, and that the study is a burden rather than the joyful hope of a better individual and collective future.

But of course, discover these simple things would they, poor things, had studied at the time, which, apparently seen, it seems highly unlikely.
