Should boys start school a year later than girls because of developmental differences?

2000s

Damn, you wouldn’t think this would still be happening in the 2000s. This is also not a good thing for girls who will start to see their male peers as less than them.

This has led to secretive groups of men, huddling around in places where they can actually say what they feel and air their grievances. And now with the internet you have red pill groups.

Why a year later if they're having developmental struggles, wouldn't it be a year earlier?

I think it’s because they wouldn’t be able to keep up regardless, it’s not about what is taught, it’s about the comprehension and prioritising of the information. Girls may be able to absorb and prioritise the information earlier because if early development of the pre frontal cortex and those reward centres in the brain allows us to do the work and get the grades causing a positive feedback loop of doing the work earlier long before boys pre frontal cortex fully develop those rewards centres.


He explains this in the video, maybe he’s right

In an ideal world kids don’t go to school they learn and work from their communities.

How do u propose this work? How is this possible in 2023?

Which is what school is.

Do you think that boys would benefit from all boys schools?

I don't believe in separating the groups for a whole academic experience. Separating the genders only opens the potential for additional discrepancies in the learning environments. I don't want a world where someone can say, "I only want my money and resources to go towards developing this specific gender of the youth." I could easily see people taking that stance and know people personally who would definitely take it (for either side).

Also, academics aren't the only part of the school experience that matters. The prospect of building social skills is important as well. Different perspectives intermingling and developing together are important. I don't think it's beneficial for a young boy to be surrounded by only men for an extended period of time, or for a young girl only women.

These children will have to intermingle and cooperate with each other eventually. It's best they start learning their differences early (in my opinion)

Female favoritism is real in school for grades under High School (Pre-school to 8th grade)

So many female teachers would call a smart boy a "smart mouth" but would call girls "naturally intelligent and well behaved". And that gets hammered in our minds up until adulthood until you see grown men have low self esteem in all facets of life. Any discipline on a boy would be 10x harsher and met with embarrassing him in front of the class, but a discipline on a girl they would set her aside and tell her to calm down. It's disgusting


Glad I was a kid who talked back alot and got straight A's so this never effected me at all

What needs to end is the idea that boys are so much "easier" to raise, deal with or rear than girls.

Young men and boys are often left to fend for themselves because of the myth that they'll eventually figure things out on their own "as nature intended" meanwhile women and girls allegedly need constant instruction on how to be women, wives and mothers.......

Young boys are both under and OVER estimated in their capabilities because society is hyper focused on female chastity, virginity and subservience. Kill that mindset and start recognizing boys as unique individuals who also require guidance and watch how quickly society improves.

If that was the case the education system in this country wouldn’t be so terrible

I said ideal for a reason. This country actively fights against its citizens having a sensible life I don’t really know what the majority of people are capable of doing. Personally I’m trying to structure my life in a way me and my wife are constantly with our kids and can either take them to work with us or develop products we can make at home with them, and leave them with family members should we have to go work together without them. The goal is to stay around them pretty much 24/7 but again, idk how most people in this country as is will be able to do something similar

After so many of these kids I've taught, it looks like some boys and girl equally act like they got developmental delays in their prefrontal cortex

N if this staggered approach was inplemented, you know some households would be heated cuz that first year boys gonna be like at his sister cuz she gotta hit the books and he gets to catch up with his cartoons

You will still have your community, your family and siblings, plus your friends family and siblings, plus extracurricular activities so there would be plenty of girls to socialise with and plenty of opportunity .

Also as I said in the OP plenty of developing countries have segregated schooling and there are no issues with social interaction and the birth rate in those countries aren’t falling.

I went to normal schools. Had one of the top gpas in my class. Could have skipped a grade or two in elementary if I wanted to. Graduated college in four years. I've often been told my handwriting (especially cursive) can be mistaken for a woman's because it's so neat.

and I'm not the most intelligent dude on the planet. The reason boys have worse handwriting than girls and some struggle in school is because teachers and parents do not hold them accountable. This rhetoric that girls are more mature and smart has been said in classrooms since I was growing up (sometimes directly to me...how demoralizing to a young child is that?), and that influences how people treat students. There were teachers who frankly didn't give af if the boys in the class were articulate or not, and focused their efforts on mentoring the girls.

My parents believed in the belt. I got a 60 on my first spelling test and finished top of class from that point on. 100 after 100 after 100. Academics were just as important as sports in my household and it reflected in my track record.

Good points.

Boys are loved while girls are trained. That's why women have been outpacing men. When you raise sons, you gotta be firm and strong. No puzzyfooting modern shyt. Girls can be raised with a softer hand if they're more mature naturally but most boys need more discipline.

Parents were cool as long as I got 90+ on report cards. If my grade was 80-89 in a particular subject, they'd start asking questions about "why" and what I'm gonna do to make it better. Low 80s was a guarantee of more study time and the Sega Saturn & Playstation being put in the closet. Lord knows if I brought home anything in the 70s, my azz was in deep shyt. They knew how capable I was and didn't tolerate fukkery on some "boys will be boys" bullshyt.

Starting school later? Sometimes it's needed but not all boys are immature or academically behind like that. Really needs to be on a case by case basis.

This method sounds stifling and kinda cultish. Children need opportunities to develop outside of parents and families. I understand the need for protection, it just sounds like alot.

Went to boy schools all my life

Downside no girls. But we had a brotherhood thing and went to war at sports and had an awesome upbringing.. High school was more academically competitive

 

[rbksNgirbauds]

Boys and girls shouldn't even be attending school together at all, how bout that
